2 Thessalonians 1

1 Paul certifies them of the good opinion which he had of
their faith, love, and patience; 11 and therewithal uses divers reasons for the comforting of
them in persecution, whereof the chief is taken from the righteous judgment of God. 2Co 1:19; 1Th 1:1-10; Ro 1:7; 1Co 1:3,8;

groweth. The word, [huperauxano g5232,] from [huper g5228,] intensive, and [auxano g837,] to grow, increase, signifies, as Dr. Clarke remarks, to grow luxuriantly, as a good and healthy tree in a good soil; and, if a fruit tree, bearing an abundance of fruit to compensate the labour of the husbandman. Faith is one of the seeds of the kingdom: this the Apostle had sowed and watered, and God gave an abundant increase. Their faith was multiplied, and their love abounded: and this was not the case with some distinguished characters only; it was the case with every one of them. For this the apostle felt himself bound to give continual thanks to God on their behalf, as it was "meet" and right.
