1 Thessalonians 5:11 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

Comfort yourselves, х alleelous (G240)] - "one another." Here he reverts to consolation, as in 1 Thessalonians 4:18.

One another - Greek, 'edify (ye) one the other;' literally, 'build up' (believers forming the temple of God, 1 Corinthians 3:16); namely, in faith, hope, and love, by discoursing together on such topics as the coming glory of the Lord and His saints (Malachi 3:16).

1 Thessalonians 5:11

11 Wherefore comforta yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
