Exegesis
The qualitative relative clause hoitines anethematisan heautous {οἵτινες ἀνεθεμάτισαν ἑαυτοὺς | hoítines anethemátisan heautoùs} characterizes these men as a specific kind of people—those who have put themselves under a curse-oath—further defined by the coordinated infinitive phrase mēte phagein mēte piein {μήτε φαγεῖν μήτε πιεῖν | mḗte phageîn mḗte pieîn}, expressing what their self-imposed ban covers.
In context — Acts 23:21
Therefore you must not be persuaded by them, for more than forty men from among them are lying in wait for him, who have bound themselves with an oath neither to eat nor to drink until they have killed him; and now they are ready, awaiting the promise from you .
