What is the most rational way to get a collection of objects through two relationships?

Question

Laravel

Hello!
There is an entity (Object 1) to which several entities (Objects of type 2) are attached through a pivot table (many to many). In turn, several other entities (Type 3 Objects) are linked to Objects 2 through the pivot table.
What is the most rational and elegant way to get a collection of Objects of type 3 for Object 1.
Thank you!

Before that, we do nested eager loading so as not to produce queries to the database.

Answer 2

Search for "chain links" through "object of the 2nd type" through reverse dependencies.
So, we do it in reverse order:
1. We take a collection of all 3 types of objects bound to the 2nd type.
2. From the result - we take all objects tied to the required ID of the 1st type.
Result: a collection of type 3 objects for the specified type 1 object.
