Ταῦτα λάλει καὶ παρακάλει καὶ ἔλεγχε μετὰ πάσης ἐπιταγῆς· μηδείς σου περιφρονείτω (Titus 2:15)

Speak these things, and encourage and rebuke with all authority. Let no one disregard you.

This strong apostolic command from Paul to Titus combines three imperatives with a final charge against being disregarded. The verse—Ταῦτα λάλει καὶ παρακάλει καὶ ἔλεγχε μετὰ πάσης ἐπιταγῆς· μηδείς σου περιφρονείτω from Titus 2:15—models the full range of pastoral responsibility. The grammar blends imperatives, prepositional emphasis, genitive construction, and a rare third-person imperative of prohibition to express bold, Spirit-empowered leadership.
