82d] οὐ μέντοι μὰ Δία, ἦ δ᾽ ὅς. τοιγάρτοι τούτοις μὲν ἅπασιν, ὦ Κέβης, ἐκεῖνοι οἷς τι μέλει τῆς ἑαυτῶν ψυχῆς ἀλλὰ μὴ σώματι πλάττοντες ζῶσι, χαίρειν εἰπόντες, οὐ κατὰ ταὐτὰ πορεύονται αὐτοῖς ὡς οὐκ εἰδόσιν ὅπῃ ἔρχονται, αὐτοὶ δὲ ἡγούμενοι οὐ δεῖν ἐναντία τῇ φιλοσοφίᾳ πράττειν καὶ τῇ ἐκείνης λύσει τε καὶ καθαρμῷ ταύτῃ δὴ τρέπονται ἐκείνῃ ἑπόμενοι, ᾗ ἐκείνη ὑφηγεῖται. I read this ἐκείνῃ as an adverb but the comment says it is the dative of the pronoun εκείνη referring to philosophy.
The various forms of ἐκείνη refer to philosophy. ταύτῃ . . . ᾗ is adverbial “in the direction where she leads”
“. . . they turn, following her [ἐκείνῃ ἑπόμενοι] in the direction where she leads.”
ἕπομαι takes a dative complement of the person followed.
