Description: In this commentary Gordon Fee aims first and foremost to offer a fresh exposition of the text of 1 and 2 Thessalonians. He shows the reader what is in the biblical text, what the text meant in the first century, and what it means now. Fee reveals the logic of each argument or narrative before moving on to the details of each verse, and he concludes each section with a theological-practical reflection on the meaning of the text today. Among other things, Fee explores the occasion for writing for each epistle, restoring 2 Thessalonians to the place it deserves as a full companion to the first letter, rather than merely a tagalong to 1 Thessalonians.

A labor of love on Fee's part, this commentary will serve to help rescue 1 and 2 Thessalonians from their "Cinderella" status among Paul's letters. Fee's primary target is the proverbial "busy pastor" who wants help in understanding the biblical text as he or she prepares to preach or teach. However, as with all his commentaries, he also provides solid exposition for students in the process of learning how to preach or teach and enough technical material (mostly in the footnotes) so that even the scholar can benefit.

"Gordon Fee brings his exceptional skill as an exegete together with his pastor's heart in this very helpful commentary on Paul's two Thessalonian letters. Fee delivers his depth of insight into the text in prose that is a model of clarity and readability. Everyone will appreciate his concise and challenging applications at the end of each section."
--Clinton E. Arnold, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University

"Fee could not be boring even if he tried. The zest of his prose makes him exciting to read, and his scholarship is always rigorous."
--D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
