Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
All Commentaries on 1 Thessalonians 5:10 Go To 1 Thessalonians 5
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Whether we wake or sleep. That is, whether we be of the number of those whom Jesus Christ shall find still upon earth, when he shall come to judgment, or among those who have slept and returned to dust, it is his will that we should be his. (Theodoret)
