2 Thessalonians 2:10
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
研读注释
Study Note
The description of those who perish 'because they did not receive the love of the truth in order to be saved' names culpable rejection rather than ignorance as the cause of eschatological destruction. The phrase 'love of the truth' (agapēn tēs alētheias) is unique in the New Testament, designating not merely intellectual assent but a volitional embrace of the gospel. The passage (2 Thessalonians 2:9–12) belongs to the 'man of lawlessness' section, one of the most contested eschatological texts in the Pauline corpus, with interpretations ranging from a Roman emperor to a future antichrist figure. The theological principle — rejection of truth results in reception of delusion — reflects a pattern in both prophetic literature (Isaiah 6:9–10) and the Johannine tradition (John 12:39–40) about judicial hardening.
