1 Thessalonians Chapter 2 Verse 7

Interpretation of 1 Thessalonians Chapter 2 Verse 7

In 1 Thessalonians 2:7, Paul is reminding the Thessalonians of how he and his fellow missionaries conducted themselves among them. They were gentle and caring, much like a nurse caring for her own children. Paul used this metaphor to emphasize their loving and tender approach as they shared the Gospel with them. He wanted them to understand that they were loving and not harsh or judgmental, but lovingly shared the message of God’s grace.
