The command abode will allow a person to create a temporary or permanent table view within the SDE database. In ArcCatalog, you can see the view as a table, which makes it helpful to query. To make this command work in python, you need to create a script that will call the sdetable.exe file and pass in all the parameters.
The general concept of this is quite simple:
# Run the command
stdout_handle = os.popen(commandStr, "r")
# Read the commands output into a variable from the standard output handle
text = stdout_handle.read()
Here you use the os.popoen(<.exe file>, "r") which returns acknowledgement message once the script completes sucessfully or not.
Enjoy
