Bible Note: Hi Lionhead That isn't quite the context as to what that verse is saying is it? The aforetime mentioned, was aforetime to the one writing, referring to the "hope". While it is true we can have the same "hope", because we can read the same things they did. So which one is Thess. written to, them or us? If it's to them, what do we learn from it, in relation to the hope Rom.15. was speaking about? If it's to us, why did they need it? Vintage68 |
