1 Tesalonicenses 3:7

7 Así que, amados hermanos, en medio de nuestras dificultades y sufrimientos hemos sido muy animados porque han permanecido firmes en su 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 esta razón, cuando ya no pude más, envié a Timoteo para averiguar si la fe de ustedes seguía firme. Tenía miedo de que el tentador los hubiera vencido y que nuestro trabajo hubiera sido en vano.

6 Pero ahora Timoteo acaba de regresar y nos trajo buenas noticias acerca de la fe y el amor de ustedes. Nos contó que siempre recuerdan nuestra visita con alegría y que desean vernos tanto como nosotros deseamos verlos a ustedes.

7 Así que, amados hermanos, en medio de nuestras dificultades y sufrimientos hemos sido muy animados porque han permanecido firmes en su fe.

8 Nos reaviva saber que están firmes en el Señor.

9 ¡Cuánto le agradecemos a Dios por ustedes! Gracias a ustedes tenemos gran alegría cuando entramos en la presencia de Dios.
