But the Lord This phrase emphasizes the sovereignty and supremacy of God. In the Greek, "Kyrios" (Lord) is a title that denotes authority and divinity. It is a reminder to the Thessalonians that despite any challenges or persecutions they face, God remains the ultimate authority. Historically, the early Christians often faced opposition, and this assurance would have been a source of comfort, reinforcing that their faith was placed in the One who is above all earthly powers. is faithful and He will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one Who shall stablish you.--How soon St. Paul reverts from his own needs to theirs!

Verse 3. - But; in contrast with the men just mentioned. The Lord is faithful; as if the apostle had said," Man may be faithless, but the Lord is faithful" (see Romans 3:4).

There is nothing in the word itself to determine its meaning; this must be learned from the context. Most commentators (Calvin, Bengel, Olshausen, Hofmann, Macknight, Ellicott, Eadie, and Bishop Alexander) suppose that the evil one is meant; and it is so rendered in the R.V.: "Guard you from the evil one." But it is better to take the word abstractly "evil" in general, whether evil persons or evil things; as a contrast to "every good word and work" (2 Thessalonians 2:17). So Alford, Lunemann, De Wette, Jowett, Lillie. There is the same difference of opinion with regard to the words in the Lord's Prayer: "Deliver us from evil;" or "from the evil one" (R.V.). Here, also, notwithstanding the high authorities on the opposite side, we consider that our Lord's words are not limited to the evil one, but are to be taken generally - "evil" in the widest sense, as being much more forcible.Parallel Commentaries ...
