Paul had to leave Thessalonica pretty abruptly. His reaction toward the Jews there (at least the ones who persecuted him) is more harsh than anywhere else in his writing. He speaks almost as a prophet pronouncing doom on the unfaithful. But that isn’t what he is most concerned with in this letter. From that little sidetrack he moves on to talk about his concern for the faith of the people in that church. Once again we see Paul revealing his true heart for the people he has ministered to.
