2 Thessalonians 2:11
_ _ for this cause — because “they received not the love of the truth.” The best safeguard against error is “the love of the truth.”
_ _ shall send — Greek, “sends,” or “is sending”; the “delusion” is already beginning. God judicially sends hardness of heart on those who have rejected the truth, and gives them up in righteous judgment to Satan’s delusions (Isaiah 6:9, Isaiah 6:10; Romans 1:24-26, Romans 1:28). They first cast off the love of the truth, then God gives them up to Satan’s delusions, then they settle down into “believing the lie”: an awful climax (1 Kings 22:22, 1 Kings 22:23; Ezekiel 14:9; Job 12:16; Matthew 24:5, Matthew 24:11; 1 Timothy 4:1).
_ _ strong delusion — Greek, “the powerful working of error,” answering to the energizing “working of Satan” (2 Thessalonians 2:9); the same expression as is applied to the Holy Ghost’s operation in believers: “powerful” or “effectual (energizing) working” (Ephesians 1:19).
_ _ believe a lie — rather, “the lie” which Antichrist tells them, appealing to his miracles as proofs of it ... (2 Thessalonians 2:9). |
2 Thessalonians 2:11
Therefore God shall send them — That is, judicially permit to come upon them, strong delusion. |
2 Thessalonians 2:11
And for this cause God shall send them (n) strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
(n) A most mighty working to deceive them. |

Isaiah 6:9-10 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. ...
