Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Thessalonians 5:1

But of the times and the seasons - See the notes, Acts 1:7. The reference here is to the coming of the Lord Jesus, and to the various events connected with his advent; see the close of 1 Thessalonians 4:0.Ye have no need that I write unto you - That is, they had received all the information on the particular point to which he refers, which it was necessary they should have. He seems to refer particularly to the suddenness of his coming. It is evident from this, as well as from other parts of... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 1 Thessalonians 5:1

1 Thessalonians 5:1. The apostle having described the coming of Christ to raise the dead, judge the world, and carry the righteous with him to heaven, does not quit the awful subject, but proceeds in this chapter to foretel the terror which his appearance will occasion to the unrighteous, and the punishment which he will then inflict on them: a circumstance this which merits the reader’s attention, because it proves that, in describing Christ’s second coming, the apostle had some further end... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11

Those who are still alive (5:1-11)Paul had already told the Thessalonians that no one knows when Christ will return. He will come as unexpectedly as a thief. His intervention in the affairs of the world will be as sudden as birth pains. His return will smash the non-Christian’s sense of security with a destruction that none will escape (5:1-3). The life of the non-Christian is likened to a dark night of moral laziness and ill-discipline. The life of the Christian is likened to a bright day of... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 1 Thessalonians 5:1

1 THESS. 5This chapter continues, significantly, the teaching on the Second Advent, but with a difference of purpose. Whereas in 1 Thessalonians 4 the purpose was reassurance with reference to deceased Christians, in this it is rather an admonition to be ready for the event when it occurs (1 Thessalonians 5:1-11). Then follows a paragraph of instructions directed especially to the elders of the church (1 Thessalonians 5:12-22), with the conclusion next, containing the apostolic signature and... read more

1 Thessalonians 5:1-2. But of the times and the seasons, &c.— "I have told you that the solemn day of universal judgment will certainly come; and have been endeavouring to lead your minds to those views of it which must be most reviving to every true believer: but concerning the particular times and seasons of this grand event, with which the oeconomy of Providence in this world is to close, and respecting some very wonderful occurrences which are to precede it, I am satisfied, my brethren,... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Thessalonians 5:1-2

Paul had previously taught this church about the day of the Lord (1 Thessalonians 5:2). Jesus had also taught His disciples about it (cf. Matthew 24:44; Mark 13; Luke 21). They had taught about the chronological periods ("times," Gr. chronos, an extended period) and the major features of those periods ("epochs," Gr. chairos, a definite period) that lay ahead in the future. These words may describe the end times from these two perspectives (cf. Acts 1:7; Acts 3:19-21). [Note: G. G. Findlay, The... read more

C. Personal watchfulness 5:1-11In view of the imminency of Christ’s return Paul exhorted the Thessalonians to be ready to meet the Lord at any time."The former [paragraph, i.e., 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18] offered instruction concerning the dead in Christ; this [paragraph] gives a word of needed exhortation to the living." [Note: Hiebert, p. 207.] Other contrasts between these passages are the Rapture and the day of the Lord, and resurrection and judgment.This pericope deals with the time of... read more
