Kehillah in Thessalonika I 2:20 Meaning and Commentary

1 Thessalonians 2:20

For ye are our glory and joy.
] Or "our joy", as the Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions read; this is a repetition, and a confirmation of what is before said; and signifies that these saints were then the glory of the apostles, being the seals of their ministry; and whom they gloried of and rejoiced in, and hoped and believed they would be such, as would be their joy and crown in time to come, and for ever.

Kehillah in Thessalonika I 2:20 In-Context

18 For we wanted to come to you. Indeed I, [Rav] Sha’ul, did again and again; but Hasatan hindered us.
19 For who is our tikvah or simcha or crown to glory in before Adoneinu Yehoshua at His Parousia, at the Bias Moshiach?is it not you?
20 For you are our kavod and simcha.
