1 Thessalonians2:10

10. Ye are witnesses--as to our outward conduct.

God--as to our inner motives.

holily--towards God.

justly--towards men.

unblamably--in relation to ourselves.

behaved ourselves--Greek, "were made to be," namely, by God.

among you that believe--rather, "before (that is, in the eyes of) you that believe"; whatever we may have seemed in the eyes of the unbelieving. As 1Th 2:9 refers to their outward occupation in the world; so 1Th 2:10, to their character among believers.
