"Feed my sheep!"
Pastors should be like shepherds who tend to all the welfare needs of the people in a daily ministration of faith, hope, and charity, so that none of the sheep of Christ have to eat at the tables of legal charity provided by the exercising authority of the Fathers of the earth.[1]
Before Jesus was able to provide the people with loaves and fishes in Mark 6:39 He "commanded" His disciples to "make" the people sit down in Tens. And then those groups were to organize in companies upon companies in divisions and "ranks" of "fifties and hundreds".
Christ also told His disciples not to be like the rulers and princes of the Gentiles who provided benefits by exercising authority one over the other.
Everyone who got the Baptism of Christ was "put out" by the ordinance of the Pharisees of the Jewish synagogue system which was also composed of ten families through which they provided welfare with the "Corban" of the people.
Christ appointed a kingdom to His "called out" group He called His "little flock" to be ministers or servants to the people in "free assemblies" not rulers like the "benefactors" of the "world" who "exercise authority". Every man should be led by the Holy Spirit to gather in order to love one another. The minister is supposed to be serving by making or requiring the people voluntarily organize themselves in Companies of tens, fifties and hundreds, and thousands so that people may love one another through daily ministration in the practice of Pure Religion as we see the early Church doing in history for centuries.
If all the people who say they are Christians were actually doing what Christ commanded, socialism would be obsolete and no one could be or would be exploited. Socialism is the religion you get when you refuse to do what Christ commanded and have no Pure Religion.

Command

Jesus said many things which certainly can and should be counted as instructions from the King.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag

But you might think that if Jesus actually commanded His disciples to organize thousands of people in patterns of ten families in "ranks of a hundred" in Mark 6 before they could receive any loaves and fishes there would great interest in knowing when, why , and for what purpose such a "command" was issued for what purpose. Yet, many modern Christians seem to be surprised today that such a strong word was used.

Since the practice of networking in these small companies of ten families was so common with early Christians and many other free nations for centuries you might also think that Christians today would be striving to do the same.

Luke 9:14,15 "For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties[2] in a company. And they did so, and made them all sit down."

At first, almost all Christians were Jews. Jews, including all the apostles, knew the drill.

"To this day, at least among the Jews, all it takes to form a synagog is ten elders! Ten men, rather... they constitute a synagog and the elder who was chosen by the ten heads of household conduct the services. That’s the way it was."
"The apostles as they went out established, Paul for example, church after church in one place after another and he appointed and ordained elders, and he moved on."[3]

Jesus as Christ commanded that His disciples organize the people in these small groups of heads of families and in ranks of a hundred until all the people were connected in a network because the "kingdom of heaven is like unto a net".[4] And because it is the most practical way to set the table of the Lord to say nothing of gathering a free people in a hostile world.


There is clear evidence that the early Church did that consistently so that they could rightly divide bread from house to house in the practice of Religion and to provide aid to Christians during these hard times through the aid brought by ministers like Paul and Barnabus during national dearths, emergencies and persecutions that the people who claim to be ministers of Christ would be doing something very similar today.

If Jesus told His appointed ministers to feed my sheep and care for the needy, providing a distribution of daily bread from house to house[5] without exercising authority to provide that daily ministration through the practice of what James calls Pure Religion in the service of a peculiar people by His Church they would be striving to do that too.
If Jesus told His appointed minister they had to give up their personal estates, belong to Him alone not being part of the world and follow Him that you would see all those who are claiming to be the ministers of His Church today doing something similar.
If Jesus condemned the Pharisees for their Corban which provided benefits to the people by way of men who called themselves benefactors but exercised authority one over the other and because they failed to attend to the weightier matters then those men who call themselves ministers of Christ but do not do what He commanded may be the many workers of iniquity He warned us of and in need of repentance.
The most predominant form of free self-government system throughout history has been based on voluntary systems composed of a Network of what was sometimes called the "tens, hundreds, and thousands". Early Israel, the Teutons, Saxons, Lumbards and many others societies all followed this pattern including the early Church because Christ commanded it. This allowed them to provide a Daily ministration for the welfare of all early Christians through the practice Pure Religion which was the Corban of Christ which helped early Christians survive and thrive while the Imperial Cult of Rome declined and fell. It is important to understand that the Imperial Cult of Rome and the Corban of the Pharisees were welfare systems of Social Security and public welfare that makes the word of God to none effect. They also make the people merchandise, curse children with debt and entangle you again in the yoke of bondage and the elements of the world. The Way of Christ is your only salvation.


"This Bible is for the Government of the People, by the People, and for the People."[6]


It appears that the practices of the modern Church is drastically different than what the early Church did daily. Modern Christians are often doing things that early Christians were persecuted for refusing to do.

We see the word commanded numerous times in the Bible. Sometimes it is men commanding other men sometimes it is God or Jesus making commands. Did Jesus ever command His disciples to do something important?

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.[7] It is probably just as important to understand what those trees are as it is to understand the word commanded.

The Hebrew word commanded [8] in Genesis 2:16 is in the form of VavYodTzadikVav from the Hebrew root word TzadikVavHey which is used to create the Hebrew word commandment, mitsvah, TzadikVavHeyMem.[9]

Prostasso

There are several Greek words translated commanded in the New Testament and the first one is prostasso, which only appears 7 times.[10] It is a word that means more to bid someone to do something or conform to some arrangement rather than a forceful order or command. It is a word that means "to assign or ascribe to, join to". Even the word "assign" or “assignment” comes from the Greek word "tasso". The Greek word "pros" is preposition suggesting that to do something would be "to the advantage of" someone or something.



Epitasso

There is the Greek word epitasso (epetaxen)[11] which appears 10 times and means to enjoin upon, order, command, charge. Jesus uses this word when He commanded His disciples to organize the people in small groups or companies networked together in ranks of fifty[2] and ranks of a hundred.

  • Mark 6:39 according to Westcott and Hort 1881 Greek text is as follows:
καὶ ἐπέταξεν αὐτοῖς ἀνακλιθῆναι πάντας συμπόσια συμπόσια ἐπὶ τῷ χλωρῷ χόρτῳ.
kai epetaxen autois anaklinai pantas symposia symposia epi tō chlōrō chortō.
καὶ ἐπέταξεν αὐτοῖς ἀνακλιθῆναι πάντας συμπόσια συμπόσια ἐπὶ τῷ χλωρῷ χόρτῳ.
And he commanded them to make sit down all by companies by companies upon the green grass.

So we can see in the literal translation which reads:

"And he commanded them to make sit down all by companies by companies upon the green grass."

The word by companies which is symposia is repeated twice in the original text expressing a repetition in orders of tens and the word epitasso[11] translated he commanded is a compound of Tasso[12] which also produces taxis[13] all of which express an order or pattern.


This word sumposion[14] translated company 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" and is a traditional Greek word often signifying a group of around ten men.

The phrase upon the green[15] grass[16] which is a term often meaning yellow green suggesting an event later in the year such as the time of the Feast of Tabernacles which was traditionally the time when Israel organized itself in the pattern of tens which allowed them to function as a nation without a central king or top-down authority.

  • Mark 6:40 also using the Westcott and Hort 1881 text is as follows:
καὶ ἀνέπεσαν πρασιαὶ πρασιαὶ κατὰ ἑκατὸν καὶ κατὰ πεντήκοντα.
kai anepesan prasiai[17] prasiai[17] kata hekaton kai kata pentēkonta.
καὶ ἀνέπεσαν πρασιαὶ πρασιαὶ κατὰ ἑκατὸν καὶ κατὰ πεντήκοντα.
And they sat down in ranks, in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.

Which translates:

And they sat down in ranks,[17] in ranks,[17] by hundreds, and by fifties.[2]

Here we again see the term for "ranks" is also repeated twice in the original text and is from the word prasia[17] which as a Hebrew idiom i.e. they reclined in ranks or divisions, so that several ranks formed, as it were separate plots and again this order was to be by hundreds, and by fifties"[2] because there were 5000 men who were elders of families.[18]

This use of a term translated rank has nothing to do with rank of authority like a military rank of authority but is a reference to a way to network the different small groups of tens so that there can be a way to ensure that everyone is accounted for and form a cohesive group without a top-down authority.

The Kingdom of God is from "generation to generation" and not just from congregation to congregation. But it was the responsibility of the people to organize themselves in free assemblies. The Feasts made this possible. As people gathered in the tuns they were able to love one another which is the only way to fulfill the law[19] and families united by marriage and friendship and meeting the challenges of a peculiar people who live by faith, hope, and charity through a perfect law of liberty. This is why Christ commanded that the people must first organize themselves in the tens like dry bones coming together.

Paraggello

Another Greek word translated command is paraggello [20] which may include the idea of a command but by itself it only means "to transmit a message along from one to another, to declare". There are uses of the word depending on context where the word paraggello carries the weight of an order.

Jesus used this word in Mark 6:8 When he said "And commanded[20] them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:". But also in Mark 8:6 when "And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before [them]; and they did set [them] before the people." The second verse is where He "commanded the people to sit down". While we may read that as a command it was more like an instruction that it was time to sit down as they did in Mark 6:39 but the word was epitasso and he was commanding the disciples not the people.

We see Jesus use the word in Matthew 10:5 "These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into [any] city of the Samaritans enter ye not:"

Why would Jesus forbid his apostles to go to other nations including the Samaritan when he was praising the faith of a Roman centurion and the Good Samaritan? Was Jesus trying to tell, command, His disciples to do something else? Jesus would later send them out to preach to all nations, so this prohibition was just at that time.

It is probably as important to understand the words sent forth which is from apostello[21] and the words way from hodos [22], enter from the Greek eiserchomai [23] and city from the Greek polis.[24]

If those words were used according to their meaning as metaphors what Jesus was saying was quite different than what some would have you to think.

The word "the way" means "a course of conduct" or "a way (i.e. manner) of thinking, feeling, deciding". The apostles were called to Repent which means to think differently. Was Jesus warning them to be guarded against conducting themselves like the men who exercise authority but call themselves benefactors or thinking like the other nations who accepted the covetous practices, free bread, and socialism of Rome and its public religion, the Imperial Cult of Rome?

The Greek term eiserchomai[23] is warning them not to "enter" into the "polis" of the Samaritans could easily mean that Jesus did not want them to enter into "condition or status" within the political city-states. From the beginning to the end Jesus wanted to keep his disciples separate from the world which was the constitutional orders and systems of governments of the people who exercise authority one over the other.

Keleuo

A third word in the Greek text translated commanded is keleuo [25] which specifically does mean to command and appears some 27 times[26], usually by people in positions of authority like Herod, Pilate, Festus or the chief captain. 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.[27] And Jesus uses it in one of His Parables.[28]

Jesus uses the term "keleuo" several times in order to direct His disciples and the people who sought to follow Him.[29]


Entellomai

There is another word that means command which we find in the New Testament. The Greek verb entellomai[30]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 his bones. [31]

Adversaries of Christ used the word twice to mock Jesus.[32]

The term was used four times in reference to Moses giving commands.[33]

Jesus used the term 9 times concerning commands directed for us to obey.[34]

In what numbers or manner should we gather?

Is the preferred point of Christ and God which should be the preferred point of Christians.

What is nonsense is thinking it is important if you are gathering in groups of ten or 40 or 100 when the purpose of gathering has nothing to do with Christ nor his teachings.

Jesus did "command" his disciples to make 5000 Jewish men and their families to organize themselves in ranks upon ranks before there would be any distributions of food among the people.

Jews had organized in groups of ten for centuries. People before Nimrod, Egyptians before Pharaoh, Tuetons in Germany, Brits etc. All for a reason of practicality.

If people gather in whatever number but are still coveting their neighbor's goods through men who exercise authority they are clearly not followers of Christ.
