Commentaries:
Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
O man of God (w anqrwpe qeou). In N.T. only here and II Timothy 3:17, there general and here personal appeal to Timothy. Cf. Deuteronomy 33:1; I Samuel 2:27.
Flee (feuge),
follow after (diwke). Vivid verbs in present active imperative. The preacher can not afford to parley with such temptations.
