Every pronoun must first be preceded by an antecedent, that is a noun for which the pronoun is going to substitute. If I were to mention a boy, then the word 'boy' becomes the antecedent to the pronoun 'he' or 'him'. I could say 'the boy sat down', and then after always refer to him as 'he' or 'him'. For example 'he is still sitting', 'I didn't tell him to move', 'He is a very nice boy I like him'. The pronoun 'he' is for the subjective case, while 'him' is for the objective case.
