13 Pero vosotros, hermanos, no os canséis de hacer el bien.

2 Tesalonicenses 3:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 Thessalonians 3:13

But ye, brethren
The rest of the members of the church, who were diligent and industrious in their callings, minded their own business, and did not trouble themselves with other men's matters, took care of themselves, and their families, and were beneficent to others:

be not weary in well doing;
which may be understood generally of all well doing, or of doing of every good work; which is well done when done according to the will of God, in faith, and from a principle of love, and in the name and strength of Christ, and with a view to the glory of God: or particularly of acts of beneficence to the poor; for though the idle and lazy should not be relieved, yet the helpless poor should not be neglected. This the apostle observes, lest covetous persons should make an handle of this, and withhold their hands from distributing to any, under a notion of their being idle and disorderly; or lest the saints should be tired, and become weary of doing acts of charity through the ingratitude, moroseness, and ill manners of poor people; see ( Galatians 6:9 ) .

2 Tesalonicenses 3:13 In-Context

11 Porque oímos que algunos entre vosotros andan desordenadamente, sin trabajar, pero andan metiéndose en todo.

12 A tales personas les ordenamos y exhortamos en el Señor Jesucristo, que trabajando tranquilamente, coman su propio pan.

13 Pero vosotros, hermanos, no os canséis de hacer el bien.

14 Y si alguno no obedece nuestra enseñanza en esta carta, señalad al tal y no os asociéis con él, para que se averguence.

15 Sin embargo, no lo tengáis por enemigo, sino amonestadle como a un hermano.
