In Luke 7:34, the nominative singular masculine form occurs in the accusation following the Son of Man's coming “eating and drinking”; the APB renders the accusation with “a glutton and a drunkard.” Matthew 11:19 presents the same form in the same kind of charge, with the APB rendering “a gluttonous man and a drunkard.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the accusation as “a glutton and a drunkard” in Luke 7:34 and “a gluttonous man and a drunkard” in Matthew 11:19. These renderings show the clause's presentation rather than isolating the term mechanically.
