Walk Worthily of God 1Thessalonians 2: 10You* [are] witnesses and [so is] God, how devoutly [or, in a godly manner] and righteously and blamelessly we became [fig., proved to be] to you*, the ones believing, 11even as you* know how each one of you*, as a father his own children, we [were] exhorting you* and comforting [you*] 12and appeal to [you*], in order for you* to walk about worthily of [fig., conduct yourselves in a manner fitting for] God, the One calling you* into His own kingdom and glory. [Note: The rendering “worthily” comes from ἀξίως (axíōs). It describes an action performed in a manner that matches the “weight” or worth of someone or something. Paul frequently uses this adverb to urge believers to align their behavior with their divine calling (also Eph 4:1; Phil 1:27; Col 1:10). To walk “worthily” is to ensure one’s conduct carries the same “weight” as, or is in a manner fitting for, the God whose kingdom we have been called into.] #ALT #Bible #ALTBible #1Thessalonians #BiblicalGreek #Exegesis #WalkingWithGod #Discipleship #ChristianLiving #BiblicalTruth #StudyVersion #GodsWord #Theology
