1 En cuanto a la venida de nuestro Señor Jesucristo y la manera como nos reuniremos con él, hermanos y hermanas, 2 por favor, no se inquieten ni se preocupen por ninguna revelación espiritual, o mensaje, o supuesta carta de parte de nosotros que les haga creer que el día del Señor ya ha llegado. 3 No permitan que ninguno los engañe de ninguna forma, porque la Rebelión debe venir primero, y el hombre de anarquía debe ser revelado. Aquél cuyo fin es la destrucción. 4 Él es el enemigo de Dios, y con arrogancia se coloca por encima de todo lo que se llame Dios y reciba adoración. Incluso se instala en el Templo de Dios, y afirma que él es Dios. 5 ¿No recuerdan que les dije todo esto cuando todavía estaba con ustedes? 6 Ahora bien, ustedes saben qué lo mantiene bajo control, porque él será revelado como lo que es en su debido momento. 7 Pues los caminos secretos de esta anarquía ya están obrando; sin embargo, el que detiene esta anarquía seguirá haciéndolo hasta que se quite de en medio. 8 Entonces el hombre de anarquía será revelado, ese a quien el Señor Jesús destruirá, arrasando con él, aniquilándolo con el resplandor de su venida. 9 Él (el hombre de anarquía) viene a hacer la obra de Satanás, y tendrá todo tipo de poderes, usará milagros, y llevará a cabo sorprendentes pero engañosas manifestaciones. 10 Usando todo tipo de trucos malvados engaña a aquellos que van camino a la destrucción, porque se negaron a amar la verdad y ser salvos. 11 Por esto Dios les envía un engaño que los convencerá a fin de que crean en la mentira. 12 Como resultado, todos los que no creyeron en la verdad serán condenados, pues prefirieron el mal. 13 Pero nosotros no tenemos más que agradecer a Dios por ustedes, hermanos y hermanas amados por el Señor, porque Dios los escogió desde el principio para ser salvos mediante el Espíritu que los justifica al creer en la verdad. 14 A esto los llamó Dios por medio de la buena nueva que compartimos con ustedes, para que pudieran ser partícipes de la gloria de nuestro Señor Jesucristo. 15 Así que, hermanos y hermanas, permanezcan firmes, y aférrense a lo que han aprendido, ya sea por lo que han oído, o por medio de cartas nuestras. 16 Quiera nuestro Señor Jesucristo mismo y Dios el Padre (quien por medio de su gracia nos dio seguridad eterna y fiel esperanza), 17 animarlos y fortalecerlos para que puedan decir y hacer todo lo que es bueno.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 2:6 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Second Thessalonians (Homily IV)

    One may naturally enquire, what is that which withholdeth, and after that would know, why Paul expresses it so obscurely. What then is it that withholdeth, that is, hindereth him from being revealed? Some indeed say, the grace of the Spirit, but others the Roman empire, to whom I most of all accede. Wherefore?

  2. Quotes verse 2:4 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book III, Chapter VI)

    And again, speaking of Antichrist, he says, "who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped." He points out here those who are called gods, by such as know not God, that is, idols.

  3. Quotes verse 2:8 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XX, Chapters 10–13)

    … fire coming down out of heaven and consuming them, John meant that blow wherewith Christ in His coming is to strike those persecutors of the Church whom He shall then find alive upon earth, when He shall kill Antichrist with the breath of His mouth, then even this is not the last judgment of the wicked; but the last judgment …

  4. Quotes verse 2:9 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LXXVI)

    Having called him "man of sin," and "son of perdition," He added, "Whose coming is after the working of Satan, with all power and signs and lying wonders; and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish." And see how He secures them; "Go not forth into the deserts, enter not into the secret chambers." He did not say, …

  5. Quotes verse 2:15 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture V)

    And just as the mustard seed in one small grain contains many branches, so also this Faith has embraced in few words all the knowledge of godliness in the Old and New Testaments. Take heed then, brethren, and hold fast the traditions which ye now receive, and write them an the table of your heart.
