         Comments: In {S:04400302000010} the phrase καιροὶ ἀναψύξεως is generally regarded as a reference to the Messianic age.|In a number of languages it may be extremely difficult to speak of ‘relief coming from the Lord.’ It is easy enough to speak of animate beings ‘coming,’ but to have a state of relief ‘coming’ may be semantically impossible. However, the entire expression in {S:04400302000010} may be restructured as ‘so that the Lord may cause you to have relief from trouble’ or ‘… cause you to no longer be troubled.’ For another interpretation of ἀνάψυξις in {S:04400302000010}, see {D:25.148}.
