Thayer's Greek Lexicon
δεῦτε, adverb, used when two or more are addressed (cf. Buttmann, 70 (61)); perhaps from δευῥ ἰτε (yet see Alexander Buttmann (1873) Gram. 21te Aufl. § 115 Anm. 8), see δεῦρο, 1;
1. from Homer down, come hither, come here, come: followed by an imperative, δεῦτε, κληρονομήσατε, Mat 25:34; δεῦτε, ἴδετε, Mat 28:6; Joh 4:29; δεῦτε, ἀριστήσατε, Joh 21:12; δεῦτε, συνάχθητε (Rec. δεῦτε καί συνάγεσθε), Rev 19:17. δεῦτε ἀπίσω μου come after me, be my disciples: Mat 4:19; Mar 1:17 (equivalent to àÇçÂøÇé ìÀëåÌ, 2Ki 6:19); δεῦτε εἰς τούς γάμους, Mat 22:4; εἰς ἔρημον τόπον, Mar 6:31; δεῦτε πρός με, Mat 11:28.
2. It gets the force of an interjection, "Come! Come now!" followed by a hortatory subjunctive: δεῦτε, ἀποκτείνωμεν, Mat 21:38; Mar 12:7 and R G in Luk 20:14. (the Sept. mostly for ìÀëåÌ, sometimes for áÉÌàåÌ.)
