1. Taking an early meal · dominant

   In Luke 11:37, the aorist active subjunctive occurs in a Pharisee's request that the speaker eat an early meal with him. In John 21:12, the aorist active plural is a call to eat, while John 21:15 uses the aorist active indicative plural after the meal and before Jesus addresses Simon Peter; the APB presents the whole clause as occurring after they had eaten the early meal.

   Luke 11:37John 21:12John 21:15

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the action as eating an early meal in Luke 11:37 and John 21:15, and as an invitation to "have breakfast" in John 21:12. These are presentations of the clauses rather than precise token-by-token renderings.
