δει, the third person of δεω, is commonly used impersonally in classical Greek. This usage is less common, but frequent, in the N.T. δει indicates a necessity in the nature of things rather than a personal obligation; it describes that which must be done.

οφειλει indicates rather the personal obligation; it is that which is proper, something that ought to be done.
