NOTES ON TEXT

The three missionaries, who had first brought the gospel to Thessalonica and established the church in that city, now address the ecclesia a second time, in terms almost identical with the greeting of their first letter (1Th 1:1, notes).

Paul is still in Corinth. Apparently, only a few months have elapsed since he had sent his first letter to the brethren at Thessalonica.
