This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

1Th 2:15. Ἀποκτεινάντων, who have killed) This is indeed the sin of the whole people, their greatest sin, and one not yet acknowledged.-προφήτας, the prophets) This word is construed with who have killed. That former guilt of theirs [in killing the prophets] woke up in all its strength then especially, when they slew the Lord Himself.-ἡμᾶς, us) the apostles.-ἐκδιωξάντων, who have cast out by persecution) Luk 11:49, note.-μὴ ἀρεσκόντων) not seeking to please.-ἐναντίων, and are adverse [contrary]) The Jews regarded the Gentiles with aversion, and were unwilling at that time that the word should be preached to them.
