Exegesis
The sentence foregrounds the outsider with allotriō {ἀλλοτρίῳ | allotríō} before the verb, emphasizing the contrast with the sheep’s true guide.
In context — John 10:5
They will not at all follow an outsider, but will flee from him, because they have no acquaintance with the voice of outsiders.
