Lesson

The imperative mood of a verb in Koine Greek is the form used for commands or orders. For example μετανοει means "Repent!".

The imperative has present and aorist forms. The difference in meaning generally is in the aspect, but in practice, the translation is the same in English.

An imperative verb is negated by μη and not by ου.
