Tas`loniqim Bĕt (2 Thessalonians) 2
2
1As to the coming of our Master יהושע Messiah and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, brothers,
2not to become easily unsettled in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as if the day of יהוה has come.
3Let no one deceive you in any way, because the falling away is to come first, and the man of lawlessness#See Dan. 11:36-39 is to be revealed, the son of destruction,
4who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called Elohim or that is worshipped, so that he sits as Elohim in the Dwelling Place of Elohim, showing himself that he is Elohim.
5Do you not remember that I told you this while I was still with you?
6And now you know what restrains, for him to be revealed in his time.
7For the secret of lawlessness is already at work – only until he who now restrains comes out of the midst.
8And then the lawless one shall be revealed, whom the Master shall consume with the Spirit of His mouth# Isa. 11:4 and bring to naught with the manifestation of His coming.
9The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power and signs and wonders of falsehood,
10and with all deceit of unrighteousness in those perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth, in order for them to be saved.
11And for this reason Elohim sends them a working of delusion, for them to believe the falsehood,#See also John 9:39; John 12:40; Acts 7:42; Rom. 1:24-28
12in order that all should be judged who did not believe the truth, but have delighted in the unrighteousness.
13But we ought to give thanks to Elohim always for you, brothers, beloved by the Master, because Elohim from the beginning chose you to be saved – in set-apartness of Spirit, and belief in the truth#See Eph. 1:4
14unto which He called you by our Good News, for the obtaining of the esteem of our Master יהושע Messiah.
15So, then, brothers, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or by our letter.
16And our Master יהושע Messiah Himself, and our Elohim and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting encouragement and good expectation, through favour,
17encourage your hearts and establish you in every good word and work.

2 Thessalonians 2
2
1We ask you, Achim b'Moshiach, concerning the Bias HaMoshiach (the Arrival, Coming of Moshiach) Yehoshua Adoneinu and our being gathered together to him,#2:1 Moshiach
2that you not become too hastily disturbed from your spiritual composure nor frightened either by a ruach or by a dibur (saying, utterance) or by an iggeret (letter), as if from us, saying that the YOM HASHEM#2:2 Am 5:18 (Day of the L-rd) has come.
3Let no one in any way lead you astray, because, unless the Merid (Rebellion, Revolt, the#2:3 Anti-Moshiach Shmad Betrayal Defection of Apostasy, the Azivah Abandonment) Desertion comes rishonah (first), and the Apocalypse of the Ish HaMufkarut (Man of Lawlessness), the Ish HaChatta'ah Ben HaAvaddon (Man of Sin, Son of Destruction Anti-Moshiach) is unveiled…
4I'm referring to the one setting himself against and exalting himself AL KOL EL#2:4 Dan 11:36 (above every G-d), above all that is given the appellation “G-d” or object of worship, with the result that in the Beis Hamikdash Heikhal he sits down on the MOSHAV ELOHIM#2:4 Ezek 28:2 (throne of G-d), proclaiming that he himself is Elohim…
5Do you not recall that when I was still with you I was telling you these things?
6Yet you have da'as of what is holding back and restraining#2:6 Anti-Moshiach now, so that he#2:6 Anti-Moshiach may be unveiled and revealed in his own time.
7For the Sod HaMufkarut (Mystery of Lawlessness) is already working; only he who holds back and restrains just now will do so until he is out of the way.
8And then the Ish HaMufkarut (the Man of Lawlessness)#2:8 Anti-Moshiach will be revealed, whom HaAdon#2:8 Moshiach Yehoshua, Mal 3:1; Ps 110:1; Dan 7:13-14 will destroy by the RUACH#2:8 Isa 11:4 of His mouth and will wipe out at the appearance of His Bi'as (HaMoshiach, His Parousia, Coming).
9The Bi'as Anti-Moshiach (Coming, Parousia, of Anti-Moshiach) is according to the working of HaSatan with all false ko'ach (power) and otot (signs) and pseudo moftim (wonders),
10And with all deception of resha (wickedness) for those who are perishing, because they were not being mekabel (receiving) the Ahavas HaEmes (Love of the Truth) so that they have the Geulah deliverance.
11And for this reason Hashem sends to them a powerful madduchei shav (false enticement, delusion) in order that they believe what is sheker.#2:11 1Kgs 22:22
12This is for the tachlis (purpose) of condemning to Onesh#2:12 Gehinnom all the ones who have no emunah in HaEmes, but instead have had delight in resha.
13But we ought always to offer hodayah (thanksgiving) and make brachot to Hashem concerning you, Achim b'Moshiach, ahuvei Hashem, because Hashem chose you as bikkurim (first fruits) for the Geulah through mekudash b'Ruach HaKodesh (being set apart as holy in the Ruach HaKodesh) and through emunah in HaEmes.
14This is HaEmes to which Hashem called you through our Besuras HaGeulah to the obtaining of the kavod of Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu Yehoshua.
15So then, Achim b'Moshiach, stand fast and hold fast to the#2:15 orthodox Jewish emunah, the Moshiachʼs pnimiyus haTorah that was handed over and transmitted to you, which you were taught, whether by divrei pinu (words of our mouth) or by our iggeret hakodesh.
16Now may HaMelech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu Himself and Elohim Avinu, who has regarded us with ahavah (agape), and has granted us nechamat olam (eternal consolation) and tikvah tovah (good hope) by the unmerited Chesed of Hashem,
17May He give chozek (strength) and encouragement to you in every mitzvah (good deed) you do and in every dibur (utterance) you speak.
