I find the Greek word seven times used in the New Testament; twice for escaping out of the danger wherein men were. And it is translated according to the notation of the word fled; as where the Jailer thought that his prisoners had been fled, Acts 16. 27. And where the Exorcists fled out of the house where a demoniac set upon them, Acts 19. 16. Once it sets out a preventing of danger intended by man: as, where the Apostle saith, I escaped his hands, 2 Cor. 11. 33. Once also it sets out a preventing of Divine judgement, Luke 21. 36. Three times it is negatively used, to show, that in such and such cases, judgement cannot be avoided, but shall assuredly be inflicted, as Rom. 2. 3. 1 Thess. 5. 3. and in this place.
