Exegesis
The verse employs a sequence of imperatives connected by kai {καὶ | kaí} ‘and’, creating unfolding commands: the present imperative pherete {φέρετε | phé-re-te} ‘bring’ initiates the summons, followed by the aorist imperative thusate {θύσατε | thú-sa-te} ‘slaughter’ marking the decisive action.
In context — Luke 15:23
And bring the fattened calf and slaughter it, and let us eat and rejoice .
