Exegesis
The conjunction mēdè {μηδὲ | mēdè} links this first infinitival phrase with a second, piein oinon {πιεῖν οἶνον | pieîn oînon}, forming a coordinated pair of specific actions (eating meat and drinking wine).
In context — Romans 14:21
It is good not to eat meat nor to drink wine nor to do anything by which your brother stumbles or is offended or is made weak .
