Identity of Acting According to Nature and to Reason

Notes

1. §7.11.1τῷ λογικῷ ζῴῳ — Dative of reference (or relation), meaning "for the rational animal" or "in the case of the rational animal."
2. §7.11.1ἡ αὐτὴ πρᾶξις — The pronoun αὐτός with the definite article expresses identity ("the same action"). It emphasizes that for a rational animal, acting "according to nature" (κατὰ φύσιν) and "according to reason" (κατὰ λόγον) are one and the exact same thing.
