Escape quickly! This urgent call to flee indicates imminent danger and the need for immediate action. In the biblical context, such calls are often associated with divine warnings, as seen in the story of Lot's escape from Sodom (<a href="/genesis/19-17.htm">Genesis 19:17</a>).

The repetition of the idea of planning and strategy underscores the seriousness of the threat. It highlights the inevitability of the coming judgment, as human plans are often used by God to accomplish His divine will.
