ἐκεῖνος means “that (those).”
“If a kingdom is divided against itself, ἐκεῖνος kingdom cannot stand.” (Mark 3:24).
Mounce's Expository Dictionary:
Pronoun: ἐκεῖνος (ekeinos), G1697 (S 1565), 265x. ἐκεῖνος is the far demonstrative (adjective and pronoun) meaning “that, those” etc." It is in contrast to the near demonstrative, οὑτος (“this, these”).
