S1. John [was] eaten by lions
   First sentence，in my humble opinion, it means the event happened in past. The sentence 'John
   has been eaten by lions' indicates that it happened in past and still remains as a fact until now.

S2. I [have] eaten my dinner
   It means you mention that you have taken your meal at the point you spoke it out. Alternatively, 'I
   had eaten my dinner when the bus arrived' emphasis that you have finished your dinner before the
   arrival time of the bus.

first sentence is past tense+passive, so use was/were+verb(past tense)
second sentence is present perfect tense+active, so use have/has+verb(past participle)
