Notes

that day: This refers to the day of the Lord (see 2:2 and 1 Thessalonians 5:2–4; see “The Day of the Lord” Theme Note).

After thanking God for the Thessalonian church, the apostle Paul writes about persecution (1:3–4). This had become worse since his first letter (1 Thessalonians 1:6; 2:14; 3:3–4). God will ease their suffering and judge those who persecute the church (2 Thessalonians 1:5–10).
