Read 1 Thessalonians 5.12-22 How the congregation should live.
In verse 12 those who...have charge of you, "leaders" or patrons in the congregation
who provided the means for the congregation to survive.
In verse 14 Idlers: NRSV, perhaps influenced by 2 Thess 3.11, uses this specific noun
rather than the more general "disorderly ones."
It is not a comment about laziness, but about those who have not fully embraced the
end-time orientation and need for holy living.
