2-е Фессалоникийцам 1:10

"When He shall have come." glorified in his saints--as the element and mirror IN which His glory shall shine brightly (Joh 17:10). admired in all them that believe--Greek, "them that believed." Once they believed, now they see: they had taken His word on trust. Now His word is made good and they need faith no longer. With wonder all celestial intelligences (Eph 3:10) shall see and admire the Redeemer on account of the excellencies which He has wrought in them. because, &c.--Supply for the sense, among whom (namely, those who shall be found to have believed) you, too, shall be; "because our testimony unto (so the Greek for 'among') you was believed" (and was not rejected as by those "who obey not the Gospel," Th2 1:8). The early preaching of the Gospel was not abstract discussions, but a testimony to facts and truths experimentally known (Luk 24:48; Act 1:8). Faith is defined by BISHOP PEARSON as "an assent unto truths, credible upon the testimony of God, delivered unto us by the apostles and prophets" (originally delivering their testimony orally, but now in their writings). "Glorified in His saints" reminds us that holiness is glory in the bud; glory is holiness manifested.

After the introduction (Th2 1:1, Th2 1:2) the apostle begins this epistle with an account of his high esteem for these Thessalonians (Th2 1:3, Th2 1:4). He then comforts them under their afflictions and persecutions (Th2 1:5-10) and tells them what his prayers were to God for them (Th2 1:11, Th2 1:12).
