The woman whom John saw on the subway was very pretty. Here, the relative pronoun “whom” is followed by the proper noun “John”. But here is my question: the relative pronoun(whom) is followed by the proper noun(John). Is it a passive voice? If it is passive then it's active voice: the proper noun(John) follows the relative pronoun(whom). So, the relative pronoun “whom” is followed by the proper noun “John”, that is " John Whom", am I right? I am totally confused with the phrase "followed by".
