1 Thessalonians 3 - Introduction
The division of Chapter s at this point is unfortunate. The import of 1 Thessalonians 3:1 lies in its connection with 1 Thessalonians 2:17 of ch. 2. We have included the whole of this chapter in the same section of the Epistle with the foregoing paragraph. See note introductory to ch. 1 Thessalonians 2:17.
