Winers Grammar, § 6, 1 a.; (Buttmann, 62 (54))), imperative from εἶδον, which see; (from Homer down). In so far as it retains the force of an imperative it is illustrated under εἰδῶ, I. 1 e. and 3.

Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the verb εἶδον (eidon), which is the aorist form of ὁράω (horao), meaning "to see" or "to behold."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is הִנֵּה (hinneh), Strong's Hebrew 2009, which also means "behold" or "look." This term is used in the Old Testament to draw attention to important statements or events, much like ἰδού in the New Testament. Usage: ἰδού is frequently used in the New Testament to highlight important events, divine interventions, or prophetic announcements. It serves as a call to the reader or listener to pay attention to what follows. Context: The Greek particle ἰδού appears numerous times in the New Testament, often introducing statements of great importance or divine revelation. It functions as an attention-getter, urging the audience to focus on the message being conveyed. In the Berean Standard Bible, ἰδού is translated as "behold" or "look," maintaining the imperative sense of the original Greek.
