2 Timothy 1:15

By all in Asia, we are to understand very many, almost all, not every individual person: Some think they were teachers in Asia, others that they were private Christians; some that they were his companions and followers, who, when they saw him imprisoned, deserted and left him; and particularly, Phygellus and Hermogenes.

Yet, note here, 1. That he doth not tax them of apostasy from Christ, when he accuses them of forsaking him; it is too harsh to say, that those that forsake. particular ruler of the church, do forsake Christ himself.

Note, 2. In that he says, All that are in Asia are turned away from me, that sin may, and oft-times has the major vote on its side, the generality go one way, and usually the wrong way; sinners, like sheep, run after one another: like fish, swim down the stream together.
