Exegesis
The initial clause begins with the relative pronoun hos {ὃς | hòs} functioning substantivally as “one person,” followed by the finite verb pisteuei {πιστεύει | pistéuei}, which governs the complementary infinitive phagein {φαγεῖν | phageîn}; this construction expresses a settled conviction about permitted action (“believes to eat”).
