2:15 Paul was not anti-Jewish; out of love for his own people, he prayed for their salvation (Rom 9:1-5; 10:1). But he was aware of the role some of the Jews had in the deaths of God’s messengers, including Jesus (1 Kgs 19:10; Acts 7:52). Now they had persecuted the apostolic messengers in Thessalonica (Acts 17:10; 2 Cor 11:26).
