Theophylact of Ohrid · c. 1055–1107
1Thess 3:10 · Douay-Rheims
“Night and day more abundantly praying that we may see your face, and may accomplish those things that are wanting to your faith?”
On this verse:
“Note the intensification in the expression! "Praying most earnestly" to see them, just as a farmer, hearing that the field he cultivates abounds with fruit, impatiently desires to see it with his own eyes.”
