†διαστέλλομαι diastéllomai, dee-as-tel'-lom-ahee; middle voice from G1223 and G4724; to set (oneself) apart (figuratively, distinguish), i.e. (by implication) to enjoin:—charge, that which was (give) commanded(-ment).
STRONGS G1291:
διαστέλλω: to draw asunder, divide, distinguish, dispose, order, (Plato, Polybius, Diodorus, Strabo, Plutarch; often in the Sept.); passive τὸ διαστελλόμενον, the injunction: Hebrews 12:20, (2 Macc. 14:28). Middle, [present διαστέλλομαι]; imperfect διεστελλόμην; 1 aorist διεστειλάμην; to open oneself, i. e. one's mind, to set forth distinctly, (Aristotle, Polybius); hence, in the N. T. [so Ezekiel 3:18, 19; Judith 11:12] to admonish, order, charge: τινί, Mark 8:15; Acts 15:24; followed by ἵνα [cf. Buttmann, 237 (204)], Matthew 16:20 R T Tr WH marginal reading; Mark 7:36; Mark 9:9; διεστείλατο πολλά, ἵνα etc. Mark 5:43.
