This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Believeth that he may eat (πιστεύει φαγεῖν)
The A.V. conveys the sense of having an opinion, thinking. But the point is the strength or weakness of the man's faith (see Rom 14:1) as it affects his eating. Hence Rev., correctly, hath faith to eat.
Herbs (λάχανα)
From λαχαίνω to dig. Herbs grown on land cultivated by digging: garden-herbs, vegetables. See on Mar 4:32; see on Luk 12:42.
