# General Information:

In this chapter the words "we" and "us" refer to Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, unless otherwise noted. Also, the word "you" is plural and refers to the believers at the church of Thessalonica. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-exclusive]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]])

# Connecting Statement:

Paul continues talking about the day Jesus will come back.

# concerning the times and seasons

This is a figurative expression which states the same idea twice. It refers to the time when the Lord Jesus will return. Alternate Translation: "the exact time that the Lord will return." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet]])


# brothers

Here "brothers" means fellow Christians.
