# 1 Thessalonians 05 General Notes
#### Structure and formatting
Paul concludes his letter in a way that was typical of letters in the ancient Near East.
#### Special concepts in this chapter
##### Day of the Lord
The exact time of the coming day of the Lord will be a surprise to the world. This is what the simile "like a thief in the night" means. Because of this, Christians are to live prepared for the coming of the Lord. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/dayofthelord]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
##### Quench the Spirit
To quench the Spirit is to ignore or work against the Holy Spirit's guidance and work.
