2 THESSALONIANS 1:7 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 4
“And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,”
And to grant rest with us to you who are afflicted, as well as to us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels — the 'rest' (anapausis) is eschatological relief from persecution; it comes at the parousia. The revelation (apokalypsis) includes Christ 'with his mighty angels' (meta tōn angelōn tēs dynameos autou), suggesting cosmic visitation.
