2 Peter 2:18
18. allure—Greek, "lay baits for."
through—Greek, "in"; the lusts of the flesh being the element IN which they lay their baits. much wantonness—Greek, "by licentiousness"; the bait which they lay. clean escaped—Greek, "really escaped." But the oldest manuscripts and Vulgate read, "scarcely," or "for but a little time"; scarcely have they escaped from them who live in error (the ungodly world), when they are allured by these seducers into sin again (2Pe 2:20).
