This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
3. οὐ μόνον δέ, ἀλλὰ. Rom 5:11, Rom 8:23, Rom 9:10; 2Co 8:19; cf. 1Ti 5:13. With the ellipse only in S. Paul; not only is the hope of the future revelation a ground of boasting, but also the process of θλίψις, by which, under conditions of the present life, it is being worked out; cf. Joh 16:33; Act 14:22. The idea is fully worked out in 2Co 4:8-12.

ἡ θλίψις. Rom 12:12; 2Th 1:4.
