1 Thessalonians 4:8
_ _ despiseth, etc. — Greek, “setteth at naught” such engagements imposed on him in his calling, 1 Thessalonians 4:7; in relation to his “brother,” 1 Thessalonians 4:6. He who doth so, “sets at naught not man (as for instance his brother), but God” (Psalms 51:4) is used of despising or rejecting God’s minister, it may mean here, “He who despiseth” or “rejecteth” these our ministerial precepts.
_ _ who hath also given unto us — So some oldest manuscripts read, but most oldest manuscripts read, “Who (without ‘also’) giveth (present) unto you” (not “us”).
_ _ his Spirit — Greek, “His own Spirit, the Holy (One)”; thus emphatically marking “holiness” (1 Thessalonians 4:7) as the end for which the Holy (One) is being given. “Unto you,” in the Greek, implies that the Spirit is being given unto, into (put “into” your hearts), and among you (compare 1 Thessalonians 2:9; Ephesians 4:30). “Giveth” implies that sanctification is not merely a work once for all accomplished in the past, but a present progressive work. So the Church of England Catechism, “sanctifieth (present) all the elect people of God.” “His own” implies that as He gives you that which is essentially identical with Himself, He expects you should become like Himself (1 Peter 1:16; 2 Peter 1:4). |
1 Thessalonians 4:8
He that despiseth — The commandments we gave. Despiseth God — Himself. Who hath also given you his Holy Spirit — To convince you of the truth, and enable you to be holy. What naked majesty of words! How oratorical, and yet with what great simplicity! — a simplicity that does not impair, but improve, the understanding to the utmost; that, like the rays of heat through a glass, collects all the powers of reason into one orderly point, from being scattered abroad in utter confusion. |
1 Thessalonians 4:8
He therefore that (c) despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
(c) These commandments which I gave you. |
