WRITTEN PROBABLY DURING HIS STAY AT
CORINTH, IN THE COURSE OF HIS SECOND
MISSIONARY JOURNEY, ABOUT 53 A. D.
It is probable that about a year intervened between the
Apostle's two Letters to this Macedonian Church. The
Thessalonians had misunderstood what he had said in the first
Letter as to the nearness of the time of Christ's Return to the
earth; a misunderstanding which led to the neglect of the
ordinary duties of life, accompanied by unrestrained religious
excitement. To correct this misapprehension, and to urge
them to fortitude, calmness and industry, St. Paul wrote this
second Letter.
