Exegesis
The initial imperative egeiresthe {ἐγείρεσθε | e-geí-re-sthe} ‘rise’ directly addresses the disciples with a plural command, followed by the hortatory subjunctive agomen {ἄγωμεν | á-gō-men} ‘let us go’, which includes both speaker and hearers in the ensuing action. This pairing heightens urgency and shared resolve.
Root and etymology
