ESCHEW . In the older Eng. versions of the Bible ‘eschew’ is common. In AV [Note: Authorized Version.] it occurs only in Job 1:1; Job 1:8; Job 2:3 of Job himself, as Job 1:1 ‘one that feared God, and eschewed evil,’ and in 1 Peter 3:11 ‘Let him eschew evil, and do good.’ The meaning is ‘turn away from’ (as RV [Note: Revised Version.] at 1 Peter 3:11 and Amer. RV [Note: Revised Version.] everywhere).
