Exegesis
The dative heautō {ἑαυτῷ | he-au-tôi} and the dative phrase tō theō {τῷ θεῷ | tôi the-ō̂} identify the recipients of the redirected speech, reflexive and divine respectively, indicating private, inward communication rather than public address. In translation, the conditional structure is preserved with “if… let him…,” and the pairing of imperatives is mirrored by “keep silent” alongside “let him speak,” maintaining the contrast between public regulation and private devotion.
