"This Bible is for the Government of the People, by the People, and for the People."[1]

We see the word commanded numerous times in the Bible. Some times it is men commanding other men sometimes it is God or Jesus making commands. The first place we see the word commanded is in Genesis when God commanded man not to eat of the tree of Knowledge but only of the tree of life.[2] It is probably just as important to understand what those trees are as it is to understand the word commanded.

The word there is [3] 06680 the Hebrew root word TzadikVavHey is used to create the Hebrew word commandment, mitsvah, TzadikVavHeyMem.[4]

There are several Greek words translated commanded in the New Testament and the first one is prostasso, which only appears 7 times.[5] It is a word that means more to bid some one to do something or conform to some order or arrangement rather than a forceful command.

There is also the Greek word epitasso which appears 10 times.[6]

Mark 6:39 And he commanded[7] them to make all sit down by companies[8] upon the green grass.[40] And they sat down in ranks[9], by hundreds, and by fifties.[41] And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all."

Mark 39

  • Westcott and Hort 1881
καὶ ἐπέταξεν αὐτοῖς ἀνακλιθῆναι πάντας συμπόσια συμπόσια ἐπὶ τῷ χλωρῷ χόρτῳ.
καὶ ἐπέταξεν αὐτοῖς ἀνακλιθῆναι πάντας συμπόσια συμπόσια ἐπὶ τῷ χλωρῷ χόρτῳ.
And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies by companies upon the green grass.

Mark 40

Westcott and Hort 1881
καὶ ἀνέπεσαν πρασιαὶ πρασιαὶ κατὰ ἑκατὸν καὶ κατὰ πεντήκοντα.

King James Version

καὶ ἀνέπεσαν πρασιαὶ πρασιαὶ κατὰ ἑκατὸν καὶ κατὰ πεντήκοντα.
And they sat down in ranks, in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.


The “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together" of Hebrews 10:25 was exemplified when the disciples were "commanded" by Jesus to make[10] the people sit down in "ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties."

We see this same pattern of Tens when the disciples were told to make the people sit down by fifties in a company. [11]

But this pattern of Tens was essential at Pentecost when thousands upon thousands of Jewish citizens accepted Jesus as the Christ and king.

This organized gathering in Tens was to implement a Corban through the hands of Jesus' disciples that would make the word of God to effect again.

Another Greek word translated command is paraggello [12] which may include the idea of a command but by itself it only means to " to transmit a message along from one to another, to declare".

A third word in the Greek translated command is keleuo [13] which specifically does mean to command and appears some 27 times[14] , usually by people in positions of authority. It is from a primary Greek word kello meaning "to urge on".

Peter uses the term "keleuo" in reference to Jesus giving him a command.[15] And Jesus uses it in one of His Parables.[16]

Jesus uses the term "keleuo" several times in order to direct the His disciples and the people who sought to follow Him.[17]

There is another word that means command which we find in the New Testament. The Greek verb entellomai[18]meaning "to order, command to be done, enjoin" is seen some 17 times in the text.

The Greek word entellomai was used once in relationship to the last will and testament of Joseph concerning is bones. [19]

Adversaries of Christ used the word twice to mock Jesus.[20]

The term was used four times in reference to Moses giving commands.[21]

Jesus used the term 9 times concerning commands directed for us to obey.[22]

    Appears 7 times:

    Matthew 8:4 And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded <4367>, for a testimony unto them.
    Matthew 21:6 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded <4367> them, And brought the ass, and the colt,...
    Kingdom context Matthew 21:5 "... thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass."
    Mark 1:44 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded <4367>, for a testimony unto them.
    Luke 5:14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded <4367>, for a testimony unto them.
    Acts 10:33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded <4367> thee of God.
    Acts 10:48 And he commanded <4367> them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
  6. ↑ 2004 ~ἐπιτάσσω~ epitasso \@ep-ee-tas’-so\@ from 1909 and 5021; ; v AV-command 8, charge 1, enjoin 1; 10
    1) to enjoin upon, order, command, charge
    The Greek word epitasso translated command appear 10 times but only a few times in the Bible in reference to Jesus. He commanded unclean spirits in Mark 1:27, Luke 4:36, Mark 9:25 and in Luke 8:31. We also see Him command the wind in Luke 8:25.
    While Jesus uses the word in Luke 14:22 in a parable of a master commanding his servants to gather people for the wedding feast the only time Jesus commanded people was his disciples in Mark 6:39 to make all sit down by companies.
    In Mark 6:27 we see the king sent an executioner, and commanded John the Baptist's head to be brought and Acts 23:2 The high priest Ananias commanded men to smite Jesus on the mouth.
    It is very clear the word epitasso is not an invitation, a suggestion, advise, statement
    The word "commandments" is not the same and it is usually the Greek word entole which means more a precept or a statement like the word we see in the Old Testament for Commandments.
    also Philemon 1:8 Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin <2004> thee that which is convenient,
  7. ↑ Matthew 15:35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
  8. ↑ The word companies is repeated twice in original text.
    4849 ~συμπόσιον~ sumposion \@soom-pos’-ee-on\@ from a derivative of the alternate of 4844; ; n n AV-company 1, not tr. 1; Repeated twice in Mark 6:39
    1) a drinking party, entertainment
    1a) of the party itself, the guests
    1b) rows of guests
    "The symposium (or symposion) was an important part of ancient Greek culture from the 7th century BCE and was a party held in a private home where Greek males gathered to drink, eat and sing together. Various topics were also discussed such as philosophy, politics, poetry and the issues of the day."
    " The equivalent of a Greek symposium in Roman society is the Latin convivium."
    A Roman convivium according to Marcus Tullius Cicero for the republican period and Seneca suggest that ten to twelve was the maximum number.
    Plato in his "Laws" endorses the benefits of the symposium as a means to test and promote virtue in citizens.
    This word sumposion is derived in part from the word pino which means "figuratively, to receive into the soul what serves to refresh strengthen, nourish it unto life eternal"
  9. ↑ ranks is also repeated twice in original text and is from the word prasia which as a Hebrew idiom i.e. they reclined in ranks or divisions, so that several ranks formed, as it were separate plots.
  10. ↑ John 6:10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
    Luke 9:15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.
  11. ↑ Luke 9:14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
  12. ↑ 3853 ~παραγγέλλω~ paraggello \@par-ang-gel’-lo\@ from 3844 and the base of 32; v AV-command 20, charge 6, give commandment 1, give charge 1, declare 1, give in charge 1, vr command 1; 31
