• Even so the faithful are called to trust confidently and rejoice exceedingly, reaping better blessings far than if all ran smoothly as the heart could wish. (“On 2 Thessalonians 1:5-8” by W. Kelly)
• The Apostle deals with the case in the same manner as in the first epistle. Before entering on the error, he treats the same subject in its true light, building upon the knowledge which the Thessalonians already possessed. Only he sets it forth with clearness in its application to the circumstances of the moment. (“2 Thessalonians 1” by J.N. Darby)
• The instrument of the subtle malice told them that the day of the Lord, that fearful time, was already come—the word (ch. 2:2) is not “at hand,” but “come,” “present”—and all that the Thessalonians were suffering, and by which their hearts were shaken, appeared like a testimony to prove it and to confirm the words of the false teachers. Was it not written that it should be a day of trial and anguish? (“2 Thessalonians 1” by J.N. Darby)
• Hence the Apostle felt the need of preparing the way for his correction of this special error foisted on them, by a just determination of its true nature. This he proceeds to set before them that they might be clear in what was indisputable, and so the better able to judge the delusion. (“On 2 Thessalonians 1:5-8” by W. Kelly)
• The faithful are called to trust confidently and rejoice exceedingly, reaping better blessings far than if all ran smoothly as the heart could wish. (“On 2 Thessalonians 1:5-8” by W. Kelly)
• Faith perseveres without a sign, it may be, so patience must have its perfect work. (“On 2 Thessalonians 1:5-8” by W. Kelly)
