This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The assembling of ourselves together (ἐπισυναφωγὴν ἑαυτῶν)
Επισυναγωγή only here and 2Th 2:1, see note. The act of assembling, although some explain assembly. The antithesis is, “not forsaking assembling, but exhorting in assembly.” Lünemann aptly says that the idea of apostasy which would be conveyed by the rendering assembly or congregation is excluded by ἔθος habit or custom, which implies an often recurring act on the part of the same persons.
As the manner of some is (καθὼς ἔθος τισίν)
For manner rend. custom. Lit. as is custom unto some. Ἔθος mostly in Luke and Acts. Comp. Luk 1:9; Joh 19:40.
Ye see the day approaching (βλέπετε ἐγγίζουσαν τὴν ἡμέραν)
The day of Christ's second coming, bringing with it the judgment of Israel. He could say “ye see,” because they were familiar with Christ's prophecy concerning the destruction of the temple; and they would see this crisis approaching in the disturbances which heralded the Jewish war.
