Exegesis
In the quotation, the imperative Húpage opísō mou {Ὕπαγε ὀπίσω μου | húpage opísō mou} ‘go behind me’ with the vocative satánâ {Σατανᾶ | satánâ} creates a decisive command, displacing Peter’s misalignment.
In context — Mark 8:33
But after turning and looking at His disciples, He rebuked Peter and said, “Go behind Me , Satan! For you are not thinking the things of God , but the things of men.”
