2:17–3:6 The remarkable correlation between 2:17–3:6 and Ac 17:1-16 with 18:1-5 confirms the historical value of Acts, which adds detail to Paul’s comments. Paul and his companions came to Thessalonica from Philippi (Ac 17:1; see 1Th 2:2). Forced out of Thessalonica (Ac 17:5-10; see 1Th 2:17-18), they went to Berea (Ac 17:10). From there Paul went on alone to Athens (Ac 17:14-16; see 1Th 3:1), leaving instructions for Silas and Timothy (Ac 17:16; see 1Th 3:2-3), and eventually traveled to Corinth (Ac 18:1), where his companions rejoined him (Ac 18:5; see 1Th 3:6).
