Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
'my beloved' -'is strongly affectionate and urgently pleading.' (Lenski p. 406)
'flee' -'continue to flee'. 'They should not see how near they can come to idolatry without partaking in it, but how far they can keep from it.' (Erdman p. 105) Especially in light of how others in the past had failed! Flirtation with idolatry in the past drew severe judgements.
