1 Tesalonicenses 3:7

7 En ello, hermanos, recibimos consolación de vosotros en toda nuestra tribulación y necesidad por causa 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."

5 Por lo cual, también yo, no esperando más, he enviado a reconocer vuestra fe, no sea que os haya tentado el Tentador, y que nuestro trabajo haya sido en vano

6 Pero volviendo de vosotros a nosotros Timoteo, y haciéndonos saber buenas noticias de vuestra fe y caridad, y que siempre tenéis buena memoria de nosotros, deseando vernos, como también nosotros a vosotros

7 En ello, hermanos, recibimos consolación de vosotros en toda nuestra tribulación y necesidad por causa de vuestra fe

8 porque ahora vivimos nosotros, si vosotros estáis firmes en el Señor

9 Por lo cual, ¿qué acción de gracias podremos dar a Dios por vosotros, por todo el gozo con que nos gozamos a causa de vosotros delante de nuestro Dios
