The Thessalonian Epistles
by David W. Cloud
New - Nov. 2021
A Commentary on First and Second Thessalonians
The church at Thessalonica was founded on Paul’s second missionary journey. Paul preached in the synagogue for three sabbaths and “some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few” (Ac. 17:1-4). the church at Thessalonica prospered and became a lighthouse for all of Macedonia and Achaia.
The major theme of both Thessalonian epistles is Christ’s coming. This theme is dealt with in every chapter for a total of forty verses. See 1 Th. 1:10; 2:19; 3:13; 4:13-18; 5:1-11, 23; 2 Th. 1:6-10; 2:1-12; 3:5.
Commentary Series
This series is designed in a unique format to be used as commentaries, as teaching courses, and for expository preaching. The commentaries are thorough, serious, broad, insightful, and practical, with an emphasis on application to the Christian life and ministry. Context is honored; words are defined; metaphors are explained; difficulties are tackled. The commentaries are packed with historical backgrounds and archaeological studies based on the author’s personal research, which is reflected in books such as Bible Times and Ancient Kingdoms and Jews in Fighter Jets. The interpretation is from a literal, dispensational perspective, and the King James Bible is explained but not criticized. There is no hint of modernism nor influence from compromised evangelicalism. The user will find no reference to or dependence upon men such as Origen, Jerome, Augustine, C.S. Lewis, Eberhard Nestle, or Bruce Metzger.
Sample Pages - 24 assorted pages (pdf)
