• The Lord was still the Lord of peace; but the beauty of that entire consecration to God, which would shine forth in the day of Christ, does not present itself to the Apostle’s mind and heart as in the first epistle {1 Thess. 5:23}. (“2 Thessalonians 3” by J.N. Darby)
• It will be observed here that there is no longer the same expression of the energy of communion and of life as previously (compare chapter 3:16 with 1 Thessalonians 5:23). Nevertheless, the Lord was still the Lord of peace; but the beauty of that entire consecration to God, which would shine forth in the day of Christ, does not present itself to the Apostle’s mind and heart as in the first epistle. (“2 Thessalonians 3” by J.N. Darby)
• "The Lord of peace" is a blessed title in which He stands related and revealed to the saints, who might and ought to be assured that He could not fail to act accordingly. For the name of the Lord is the expression of what He is or does. (“On 2 Thessalonians 3:16-18” by W. Kelly)
• Not only at all times, but "in every way." Is it possible to conceive a more studied exclusion of every source of alarm at all times, a stronger guarantee of peace from the Lord of peace Himself? (“On 2 Thessalonians 3:16-18” by W. Kelly)
• What avail all other helps, if "the Lord" be not with us all? and why should we not be at perfect peace, if He be with us, whoever and whatever else be lacking? (“On 2 Thessalonians 3:16-18” by W. Kelly)
