Dear interpreters,

In Matt 10:11, we have:

EIS hHN D' AN POLIN H KWMHN EISELQHTE, EXETASATE..
into whatsoever city or town you go,...

Is it the same as

POLIN H KWMHN EIS hGN D' AN EISELQHTE,...?

If so, what would be the reason that the antecedent
POLIN hHN KWMHN is moved after the relative pronoun?

Or, in this construction, hH is no longer a relative pronoun
but is a sort of adjective meaning "whatsoever"?
