1-2 Thessalonians

the long version

"Weima has written a full and authoritative commentary on 1 and 2 Thessalonians that readers will want to consult regularly and frequently. He brings a wealth of previous research to bear upon his exegesis. The result is well-considered and thoughtful positions at almost every juncture. Weima sets the stage for his exegesis and exposition of each section by laying out the literary character and shape of the unit to be discussed. He shows awareness of the current debate on a wide range of issues in Thessalonians research, while also ably defending traditional positions regarding authorship, interpretation, and even text-critical matters." - Stanley E. Porter, McMaster Divinity College, on back cover.
