1 Tesalonicenses 3:7

7 por eso, hermanos, en toda nuestra necesidad y aflicción fuimos consolados respecto a vosotros por medio de vuestra fe;

1 Tesalonicenses 3:7 Meaning and Commentary

1 Thessalonians 3:7

Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over, you
Or "in you", as the Vulgate Latin version; or "from you", as the Arabic; or "by you", as the Syriac; or "for you", as the Ethiopic; that is, on account of them, either by what they had heard was in them, or had heard from them. This gave abundant consolation

in all our affliction and distress:
which they met with at Corinth, where the apostle laboured with his own hands, and ministered to his own, and the necessities of others, and was greatly opposed, reproached, and persecuted; see ( Acts 18:3 Acts 18:6 Acts 18:9 Acts 18:10 Acts 18:12 ) , but the news of the good estate and condition the Thessalonians were in, was a great relief and comfort to him, particularly their faith:

by your faith:
by the report of it, that it grew exceedingly, and that they walked in the truth; see ( 1 John 5:4 ) . The Alexandrian copy reads, "in all your distress and affliction, and by your faith."

1 Tesalonicenses 3:7 In-Context

5 Por eso también yo, cuando ya no pude soportar más, envié para informarme de vuestra fe, por temor a que el tentador os hubiera tentado y que nuestro trabajo resultara en vano.
6 Pero ahora Timoteo ha regresado de vosotros a nosotros, y nos ha traído buenas noticias de vuestra fe y amor y de que siempre tenéis buen recuerdo de nosotros, añorando vernos, como también nosotros a vosotros;
7 por eso, hermanos, en toda nuestra necesidad y aflicción fuimos consolados respecto a vosotros por medio de vuestra fe;
8 porque ahora sí que vivimos, si vosotros estáis firmes en el Señor.
9 Pues ¿qué acción de gracias podemos dar a Dios por vosotros, por todo el gozo con que nos regocijamos delante de nuestro Dios a causa de vosotros,
