This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
24. εἰς παροξυσμὸν ἀγάπης. “For provocation to love.” The word παροξυσμός (whence our “paroxysm”) is more generally used in a bad sense, like the English word “provocation” (see Act 15:39; Deu 29:28, LXX.). And perhaps the writer here chose the word to remind them that the “provocation” at present prevailing among them was to hatred not to love.
