Theophylact of Ohrid, on 1Thess 3:7

“Therefore we were comforted, brethren, in you, in all our necessity and tribulation, by your faith,”

“A wonderful thing! Paul expresses gratitude to them for the fact that they were not shaken. We, he says, no longer feel sorrows, but have been comforted—not in just one particular sorrow, but in every one. For the joy over you became a counterbalance to all our afflictions.”
