الرَّجُلَ a man

A definite noun 'the man' in the object-style ending forced by the emphasis-particle before it, even though it is the doer in meaning. The 'the' here is generic, so it stands for any man, and the ending is the grammatical sign of sitting under that particle.

الرَّجُلَ the man

The al- makes this definite, 'the' man, here a generic 'a person', and it is the topic the emphasis particle inna just fronted, so it wears the accusative ending inna forces on its noun. That ending is grammatical, the fingerprint of inna, not an object marker.
