'Commanded' in the Bible

The king immediately sent for an executioner and commanded him to bring John’s head. So he went and beheaded him in prison,

Then He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. Taking the seven loaves, He gave thanks, broke the loaves, and kept on giving them to His disciples to set before the people. So they served the loaves to the crowd.

Then He commanded them: “Watch out! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”

It is like a man on a journey, who left his house, gave authority to his slaves, gave each one his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to be alert.
