Exegesis
The relative clause hon esthion hoi khoiroi {ὧν ἤσθιον οἱ χοῖροι | hṓn ḗsthion hoî khoîroi} portrays the ongoing action of the pods’ consumption by the pigs, with the relative pronoun as object and hoi khoiroi as subject, heightening the contrast between the son’s condition and the animals’ freedom.
