Expositor's Bible Commentary Commentary 1 Corinthians 10:14

"Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry." — 1 Corinthians 10:14 (ASV)

The apostle’s terse injunction, “Flee [GK 3771] from idolatry,” applies not only to the weak who through eating might be led into idolatry but also to those with a strong conscience who, by leading the weak into sin, are also guilty. Paul asks the Corinthians to use good sense and to determine the truth of what he says.
