Jump to Previous Always Circumstance Continually Grant Means Peace Sense Times Way WaysJump to Next Always Circumstance Continually Grant Means Peace Sense Times Way Ways2 Thessalonians 3 1. Paul craves their prayers for himself;3. testifies what confidence he has in them; 5. makes request to God in their behalf; 6. gives them various precepts, especially to shun idleness, and ill company; 16. and then concludes with prayer and salutation. Now The word "Now" serves as a transition, indicating a shift from the preceding instructions and exhortations to a benediction. It emphasizes the immediacy and relevance of the prayer that follows. In the Greek, "de" often functions as a conjunction, suggesting continuity and connection with the previous discourse. This word invites the reader to focus on the present moment, underscoring the timeless nature of God's peace. may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at all times and in every way The Lord be with all of you The Lord of peace.--We had "the God of peace" at the close of the last Epistle (1Thessalonians 5:23, where see the Note). The "peace" prayed for here has perhaps a more immediate reference to external matters than in the parallel passage. St. Chrysostom suggests the danger of quarrels breaking out owing to the administration of the prescribed discipline. And the conduct of these restless busybodies was in itself destructive of peace, both for their own souls and for the community. But the words "by all means," or, more literally, in every shape and form, show that the Apostle is extending his glance over all the subjects mentioned in the Epistle now finished: "Peace all throughout in every form," through all persecutions and from all persecutions; through the terrors of the reign of Antichrist and through the Judgment Day; peace among themselves, in their own hearts, with God. The Lord be with you all.--Another way of expressing the prayer for peace; for where He enters He says, "Peace be unto you." The word "all" is strongly emphasised, catching up the "always" and "in all forms." St. Paul has spoken with strong censure of some; but he wishes to show that he bears no ill-will to any; and to leave off by blessing all, as he began by giving thanks for all (2Thessalonians 1:3). Verse 16. - Now the Lord of peace himself. In 1 Thessalonians 5:23 it is "the God of peace" who is invoked: "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly." Here it is Christ who is named as "the Lord of peace." He is the Lord of peace, as the Author, the Procurer, the Mediator of peace. Pease is here to be taken in its widest sense - peace with God, complete salvation. Give you peace always by all means. Some manuscripts read "in every place," but the reading in our version is best attested - "always by all means;" "at all times and in every way;" whether it be outward or inward, for time or for eternity. The apostle could desire no higher blessing for his converts. The Lord be with you all.Parallel Commentaries ...
