 1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and *by* our gathering together unto him,

 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for *that day shall not come*, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

 6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth *will let*, until he be taken out of the way.

 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

 9 *Even him*, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

 13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

 14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.

 16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given *us* everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,

 17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.
 
[2 Thessalonians 1](/study/2-thessalonians/1) [2 Thessalonians 3](/study/2-thessalonians/3)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and *by* our gathering together unto him, **** 

Ver. 1. **Now we beseech you, brethren** ] Christ’s spokesmen must be fair spoken, so wooing for him that they may win upon men’s hearts, leading by the hand those that are willing, and drawing after a sort those that are less willing, that they may present them as a chaste virgin to Christ, [2 Corinthians 11:2](/kjv/2-corinthians/11/2) . This earnest obtestation imports that it is both easy and dangerous to be carried away by seducers; for the Scripture doth not use to "cleave straws with beetles" to be so serious in a slight matter. "We beseech you," of all loves, ερωτωμεν (from ερως , love). Brethren, womb brethren, as near in nature as is possible. *a* "By the coming of our Lord Jesus," whom you love, look and long for; "and by your gathering together," επισυναγωγη , as ever you desire and hope to hover under his wings, as the chickens under the hen’s, that the infernal kites catch you not at that day. 

**By the coming of our Lord** ] He draweth an argument from the matter underhand wherewith their hearts were now heated beforehand. It must be an elaborate speech that shall work upon the heart. 

**And by our gathering together unto him** ] In that last and great day, when all the eagles shall be gathered to that once dead, but now all-quickening carcase, [Matthew 24:28](/kjv/matthew/24/28) ; when the sign of the Son of man shall be lifted up as an ensign, and all the saints shall repair to it, as the soldiers do to their colours, [Ephesians 1:10](/kjv/ephesians/1/10) . 

*a* Αδελφος , from α and δελφυς *uterus: fratres uterini.*
