Exegesis
The main clause centers on the aorist indicative ekéleusen {ἐκέλευσεν | ekéleusen} ‘commanded,’ with ho kýrios {ὁ κύριος | ho kýrios} ‘the lord’ as subject and autòn {αὐτὸν | autòn} ‘him’ as object.
In context — Matthew 18:25
But since he did not have the means to repay, his lord ordered that he be sold, along with his wife and children and all that he owned, and that repayment be made.
