I think you don't need to call the handle method explicitly, you just have to execute the command, the rest Laravel does. To do so, please check this documentation https://laravel.com/docs/5.0/artisan#calling-commands-outside-of-cli — Ankit Tiwari, Aug 23 '21 at 07:03

The second argument have to be a closure and you are passing an array, This closure is used to pass data to your handle method and as you dont have any arguments in your handle method use call method istead of command, Try this:

Artisan::call('make:greetings');

and also don't forget to register your command in App\Console\Kernel class:

    protected $commands = [
        'App\Console\Commands\Hello',
    ];
