Cognate: 2003 epitagḗ (from 1909 /epí, "suitably on," intensifying 5021 /tássō, "arrange") – a command "fitting" to the situation, i.e. an order that arranges things so they build on (Gk epi) each other to achieve the needed goal. Thus 2003 /epitagḗ ("a structured command") also "stresses 'the authoritativeness of the command' " (Vine, Unger, White, NT, 112). See 2004 (epitassō).
