Vincent, [1886]\nFinally (\u03c4\u1f78 \u03bb\u03bf\u03b9\u03c0\u1f78\u03bd)\nSee on Th1 4:1.\nMay have free course (\u03c4\u03c1\u03ad\u03c7\u1fc3)\nMore literally, simply, and better, may run. Have swift progress through the world. An O.T. idea. See Psa 147:15, and comp. Isa 55:11 and Act 12:24.\nBe glorified (\u03b4\u03bf\u03be\u03ac\u03b6\u03b7\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9)\nAcknowledged in its true power and glory. Comp. Joh 12:28. The phrase the word of the Lord - be glorified, only here.\nUnreasonable (\u1f00\u03c4\u03cc\u03c0\u03c9\u03bd)\nSee on Luk 23:41, and comp. Act 25:5; Act 28:6. In lxx in a moral sense, iniquitous, Job 4:8; Job 11:11; Job 34:12. The word originally means out of place.\nAll men have not faith\nSee on Act 6:7; see on Gal 1:23.\nFrom evil (\u1f00\u03c0\u1f78 \u03c4\u03bf\u1fe6 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bd\u03b7\u03c1\u03bf\u1fe6)\nPossibly, from the evil one. \u03a4\u1f78 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bd\u03b7\u03c1\u03cc\u03bd evil is found Rom 12:9; Mat 5:39; but general N.T. usage favors the masculine, personal sense. See Mat 13:19, Mat 13:38; Eph 6:16; Jo1 2:13, Jo1 2:14; Jo1 3:12; Jo1 5:18. In lxx, \u03c4\u1f78 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bd\u03b7\u03c1\u03cc\u03bd evil is very common: \u1f41 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bd\u03b7\u03c1\u1f78\u03c2 a few times, but always of men. See Deu 24:7; Est 7:6; Job 21:30. In Tob 3:8, 17, \u03c4\u1f78 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bd\u03b7\u03c1\u03cc\u03bd \u03b4\u03b1\u03b9\u03bc\u03cc\u03bd\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd the wicked demon. The masculine is favored by the Jewish formularies, of which traces appear in the Lord's prayer; by the unanimous tradition of Greek interpreters; by the interpretations of Tertullian and Cyprian, and by the evidence of the Syriac and Sahidic Versions.\nHearts (\u03ba\u03b1\u03c1\u03b4\u03af\u03b1\u03c2)\nSee on Rom 1:21; see on Rom 10:10; see on Eph 1:18.\nPatient waiting for Christ (\u1f51\u03c0\u03bf\u03bc\u03bf\u03bd\u1f74\u03bd \u03c4\u03bf\u1fe6 \u03c7\u03c1\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u1fe6)\nRather patience of Christ. The prayer is that their hearts may be directed to love God and to exhibit the patience of Christ.\nWithdraw yourselves from (\u03c3\u03c4\u03ad\u03bb\u03bb\u03b5\u03c3\u03b8\u03b1\u03b9 \u1f51\u03bc\u1fb6\u03c2 \u1f00\u03c0\u1f78)\n\u03a3\u03c4\u03ad\u03bb\u03bb\u03b5\u03c3\u03b8\u03b1\u03b9, Po.

See Joh 4:10; Act 2:38; Rom 5:15. The accusative often adverbially as here; as a gift, gratis. Comp. Mat 10:8; Rom 3:24; Rev 21:6.\nLabor and travail\nSee on Th1 1:3.\nBe chargeable (\u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b2\u03b1\u03c1\u1fc6\u03c3\u03b1\u03b9)\nPo. Better, burden.

See on reprobate mind, Rom 1:28. Not busy, but busybodies. \u03a0\u03b5\u03c1\u03b9\u03b5\u03c1\u03b3\u03ac\u03b6\u03b5\u03c3\u03b8\u03b1\u03b9 (N.T.o.) is to bustle about a thing: here, to be officious in others' affairs. See on \u03c4\u1f70 \u03c0\u03b5\u03c1\u03af\u03b5\u03c1\u03b3\u03b1 curious arts, Act 19:19, and see on Ti1 5:13.\nWith quietness - work\nSee on study to be quiet, Th1 4:11.\nBe not weary (\u1f10\u03bd\u03c4\u03c1\u03b1\u03c0\u1fc7)\nWith one exception, Luk 13:1, only in Paul.

Lit. set a mark on. The nature of the mark is indicated in the next clause.\nHave no company with (\u03bc\u1f74 \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03bc\u03af\u03b3\u03bd\u03c5\u03c3\u03b8\u03b1\u03b9)\nPo.
