How to understand the dative in Eph 5:19b: PSALLONTES THi KARDIAi HYMWN.
Locative: "in your heart(s)"
Manner: "with your heart(s)"
Advantage: "to/for your heart(s)"?

Note also 5:19a: LALOUNTES hEAUTOIS and Col 3:16: AiDONTES EN TAIS KARDIAIS
(note the preposition + the plural)

Thanks for any response
