2:3 Two events will precede that day of the Lord (2:2). • Both Jewish and Christian theology predicted a great rebellion against God before the end (Matt 24:11-14; 1 Tim 4:1). • The man of lawlessness is without or against law; his character is defined by sin. • the one who brings destruction (or the one destined for destruction): The emphasis is on the lawless man’s own destruction (2 Thes 2:8) rather than on the destruction he brings.
