Exegesis
A second relative pronoun hon {ὃν | hón} refers back to the man being accused, now becoming the object of the verb ekratesamen {ἐκρατήσαμεν | ekratḗsamen}, with kai again linking this responsive action (“we seized”) to the prior accusation. The shift from third person singular (epeirasen) to first person plural (ekratesamen) distinguishes clearly between the alleged offender and the group of accusers. In translation, the relative clauses are preserved, but English subject–verb–object order is followed, and the nuance of attempted rather than completed desecration is maintained by rendering epeirasen with “tried” or “attempted.”
Root and etymology
