Exegesis
The temporal conjunction heos {ἕως | héôs} governs a clause with two coordinated aorist subjunctives, phago {φάγω | phágô} and pio {πίω | píô}, marking the duration of the servant’s duty “until I eat and drink.”
In context — Luke 17:8
But will he not rather say to him, “Prepare what I am to eat, and, girding yourself, serve me until I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you may eat and drink”?
