Exegesis

In tes sarkos pronoian me poieisthe {τῆς σαρκὸς πρόνοιαν μὴ ποιεῖσθε | tês sarkòs prónoian mḕ poiêsthe}, the genitive sarkos {σαρκὸς | sarkòs} specifies the kind of provision forbidden—strategic planning that serves fleshly impulses.

The negative imperative poieisthe with me {μὴ | mḗ} indicates ongoing avoidance.
