In this commentary, Gene Green examines Paul's letters to the Thessalonians through the lens of Scripture and insights into first-century Thessalonica. This approach sheds light on the gospel's impact on its original audience and its relevance for today’s church and society. The book begins with a thorough exploration of Thessalonica's history, geography, socioeconomic conditions, and religious landscape, providing essential context for understanding the establishment of the city's first church and the challenges faced by its believers in practicing their faith. The main section offers a detailed verse-by-verse commentary on 1 & 2 Thessalonians, drawing out the profound meanings within these significant New Testament texts. Green highlights the letters as expressions of friendship and pastoral care, addressing various issues the Thessalonians encountered. Paul's intentions include thanking the new believers for their perseverance in suffering, encouraging them amid trials, urging them to maintain their daily work, and teaching them about the fate of believers who die before Christ's return. The theme of eschatology permeates these letters, earning them the designation of Paul's eschatological writings. Rich in insights about ancient society, this commentary is poised to become a key resource for Bible study, effectively connecting the biblical narrative with contemporary relevance.
