TSNTyndale Study Notes:

1:4 Paul’s boasting to other churches about the Thessalonians’ endurance and faithfulness would stimulate the church’s resolve to endure and remain faithful in the face of great hostility (1 Thes 2:14; 3:3-4).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns

αὐτοὺς ἡμᾶς

ourselves us

Here, ourselves is added to we to emphasize that even the apostle Paul and his associates are boasting about the Thessalonian believers. Alternate translation: “even we” or “we are the ones who”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τῆς ὑπομονῆς ὑμῶν, καὶ πίστεως

the endurance ˱of˲_you_all and faith

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of endurance and faith or if it is unclear how these two terms relate, you can express these same ideas in another way. Alternate translation: “how you patiently continue to trust in Jesus” or “how you persevere in believing in the Lord”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς διωγμοῖς ὑμῶν, καὶ ταῖς θλίψεσιν

in in in all the persecutions ˱of˲_you_all and ˱in˲_the tribulations

The two words persecutions and afflictions are saying very similar things. The repetition is used to emphasize how difficult life has been for the Thessalonian believers. If two words are difficult to find in your language or if your language does not use repetition in this way, you can use one word with this meaning and make the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “as you have been going through all these very difficult times” or “as people make you suffer in all the ways”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

πίστεως ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς διωγμοῖς ὑμῶν

faith in all the persecutions ˱of˲_you_all

Here, faith in all your persecutions does not mean to believe in or trust in persecutions. If your readers might be confused by that, you could express it more clearly. Alternate translation: “faith in Jesus Christ during all the times you are persecuted”
