1Th 2:14. Γὰρ, for) Divine working is most of all seen and felt in affliction.-ἐν τῇ Ἰονδαίᾳ, in Judea) The Jewish churches were distinguished examples to all the others.-τὰ αὐτὰ, the same things) So, αὐτὸν, the same [conflict], Php 1:30. The sameness of the fruit, the sameness of the afflictions, the sameness of the experimental proofs and characteristics of believers, in all places and at all times, afford an excellent criterion of the truth of the Gospel.-ἰδίων, your own) Mat 10:36; Luk 13:33, at the end.-συμφυλετῶν, fellow-countrymen) [liter. “persons of the same tribe.”] These were Thessalonians, Jews and Gentiles. Act 17:5.
