2 THESSALONIANS—NOTE ON 2 Thessalonians 3:8 eat anyone’s bread without paying for it. Paul refused to depend on others for his living. He took on manual labor in addition to his ministry commitments to avoid being a financial burden to the Thessalonians. He did so even though he had the God-given right to be supported (see 1 Corinthians 9:3; 1 Thessalonians 2:9).
