Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Thessalonians 3:5

5. If "the Lord" be here the Holy Ghost ( 2 Corinthians 3:17 ), the three Persons of the Trinity will occur in this verse. love of God —love to God. patient waiting for Christ —rather as Greek, "the patience (endurance) of Christ," namely, which Christ showed [ALFORD] ( 2 Thessalonians 2:4 ; 1 Thessalonians 1:3 ). ESTIUS, however, supports English Version (compare Revelation 1:9 ; Revelation 3:10 ). At all events, this grace, "patience," or persevering endurance, is connected with the "hope" ( 1 Thessalonians 1:3 ; 1 Thessalonians 1:10 ) of Christ's coming. In ALFORD'S translation we may compare Hebrews 12:1 ; Hebrews 12:2 , "Run with patience ( endurance ) . . . looking to JESUS . . . who, for the joy that was before Him, endured the cross"; so WE are to endure, as looking for the hope to be realized at His coming ( Hebrews 10:36 ; Hebrews 10:37 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-6" class="com-number"
