Exegesis
The dative autō {αὐτῷ | au-tō} marks the beneficiary, and ton siteutón mó-schon {τὸν σιτευτὸν μόσχον | ton si-teu-tòn mó-schon} highlights the specially fed calf reserved for celebration. The translation renders the participle as a relative clause and preserves the narrative contrast in English order.
