1 Thess 5:28      2 Thess 1:2

Second letter to the Thessalonians 1:1

[From:]
Paul and
Silvanus [also called Silas] and
Timothy [Paul's closest co-worker].
[Silvanus is the same person whom Luke calls Silas in the Acts of the Apostles. Here Paul uses the Latin form of his name. He was a recognized leader in the church in Jerusalem and, like Paul, was a Roman citizen, see Acts 15:22, 37.
Silas and Timothy traveled with Paul on his second missionary journey, see Acts 18:5. They had remained in Thessalonica after Paul was forced to flee the city. Now all three have been reunited in Corinth, see 1 Thess 3:6. The letter is written at the beginning of the 1.5 years that Paul is there, see Acts 18:11.] To:
Thessalonica congregation (the called out ones – Gk. ekklesia),
in God our Father and the Lord Jesus the Anointed One (Messiah, Christ).
[The Greek word for congregation is ekklesia. In classical Greek, the word could describe all kinds of gatherings of people, such as the legal assembly of the people or a mob, see Acts 19:32, 39. The literal meaning is "the called out ones." Paul is careful to emphasize that the assembly in Thessalonica is not just any group of people, they are God's assembly. In the Bible, the word can describe the local assembly in a town. That is how it is used here, but it can also refer to the universal assembly of all believers throughout the ages, see Matt. 16:18.]
