who is an adversary to, and who is lifted up above, all that is called God or that is worshipped, so much so that he sits in the temple of God, presenting himself as if he were God.

1Sol 3:13 - in order to confirm your hearts without blame, in sanctity, before God our Father, unto the return of our Lord Jesus Christ, with all his saints. Amen.
2Sol 2,2 - Zdá sa, že niektorí zle pochopili Pavlovo učenie o Kristovom druhom príchode a mysleli si, že čoskoro nastane. Preto sa Solúnčania nemajú dať pomýliť ani duchom, čiže zdanlivým prorockým nadchnutím, ani slovom, čiže mylným výkladom Písma, ani dajakým falšovaným listom, akoby Pánov deň bol časovo už blízko.
2Sol 2,3 - Pánovmu dňu bude podľa apokalyptických predstáv predchádzať všeobecný odpad od viery (Lk 18, 8; 1 Tim 4, 1; 2 Tim 3, 1–5; 1 Jn 2, 18; 4,3; 2 Pt 3,3) a zjavenie "človeka neprávosti", čiže Antikrista (porov. 1 Jn 2, 18).
2Sol 2,4 - Porov. Dan 11,36.
2Sol 2,6-7 - Pre nás záhadné tvrdenia. Pavol tu poukazuje na nepretržitú a skrytú činnosť satana a zla vo svete. No jeho verejnému vystúpeniu prekáža pravdepodobne sám Boh ("ten, čo ho zadŕža") a jeho plán spásy ("čo ho zadŕža").
2Sol 2,8 - Porov. Iz 11, 4. Zničenie dychom úst je charakteristickým prvkom židovskej apokalyptiky.
2Sol 2,9 - Satan je otec lži. Porov. Jn 8, 44; 1 Jn 2, 18.
2Sol 2,10 - Porov. 1 Sol 4, 11.
2Sol 2,11 - Pohania považovali prácu iba za zamestnanie otrokov, a preto záhaľka bola bežná. Grécky text tu používa dve slová s tým istým koreňom: ergazoménus a periergazoménus. Slovenský preklad nezachováva túto slovnú hračku, ktorá by sa dala preložiť asi takto: Robia to, že nič užitočné nerobia. Židia si vážili niektoré remeslá a zamestnania, ale určité druhy roboty sa im tiež priečili. Až kresťanstvo prinieslo v tejto veci úplný obrat, plné zhodnotenie a nadprirodzené očistenie a posvätenie práce, i tej najnižšej, ak je čestná a je prostriedkom na osobné zošľachtenie a pomocou blížnemu. Pavol si vlastnými rukami zarábal na chlieb, a tak pôsobil veľmi povzbudzujúco na veriacich (porov. 1 Kor 4, 12; Sk 18, 3; 20, 33 n).
2Sol 2,13 - "Prvotiny" sú prví Solúnčania, čo prijali vieru.
2Sol 2,15 - "Učenie", v gréckej pôvodine "parádosis" – "tradícia". Teda tradícia, čiže ústne podanie sa tiahne životom Cirkvi už od jej počiatku.
2Sol 2,17 - Pavol obyčajne listy diktoval a pravdepodobne preto, aby sa vylúčila možnosť falzifikácie, podpisoval ich vlastnou rukou (porov. 1 Kor 16, 21; Gal 6, 11; Kol 4, 18).
