10 also means the literal number 10. There were literally 10 commandments

Andrew - the Watchman on the walls of the "city" : Ezekiel 3:17; Isaiah 62:6. May we fulfill God's plan and purpose for our lives so that those drowning in this sea of life will see the light flashing from our Lighthouse and so be sabed from eternal damnation. Thank you for your obedience Andrew to our God in bringing the warnings of the signs of the times

Please check Revelation 13:1 in the King James and the Amplifed Bible it says 13:1And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, ..... it was John standing upon the sand of the sea not the dragon 🙏

St. Paul would not have written a letter to the Thessalonians that was incomprehensible to the Thessalonians.
First, he wasn’t talking about the rapture. His whole letter is acknowledging that these people have been faithful and strong despite the persecutions. We know what happened to many, if not most of them. What sense would it make for him to tell them,” relax, Jesus is going to rescue you. You don’t need to worry about persevering.” And the rapture wasn’t invented until the 19th century.
Thes. 2:1 6 “Or do you doubt that there is justice with God, to repay with affliction those who afflict you, 7 and you, the afflicted, with that rest which will be ours too? But that is for the day when the Lord Jesus appears from heaven, with angels to proclaim his power; 8 with fire flaming about him, as he pours out vengeance on those who do not acknowledge God, on those who refuse obedience to the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 The presence of the Lord, and the majesty of his power, will condemn them to eternal punishment,[1] 10 when he comes to shew how glorious he is in his saints, how marvellously he has dealt with all the faithful, that our witness should have reached you Gentiles, and found belief! Yes, there will be justice when that day comes.”
He's talking about his believers being repayed and getting justice. He will pour out vengeance on their persecutors. That doesn’t sound like the “rapture.” It sounds like the first resurrection and the tribulation.
The question about “holding back” the antichrist was God giving the Jews, who were fornicating with the beast, Rome, emperor Nero in particular, more time to convert.
Paul, mentions in 2 Thessalonians 3:8 that they’ve already been told what signs to look for because Jesus spelled them out in the Olivet discourse. He’s reminding them because this knowledge will protect from the worst of God’s revenge against the people He had loved and protected.
God had cleared the path for His chosen people during their whole exodus. He handed over every land and people to them until they were safe in His holy city. In the end, they betrayed Him in the ultimate way. They killed the son that He had prophesied. They tried to kill all of His church. All of the peoples of the known world joined the Roman army to destroy them. But Jesus gave His people the info they needed to escape “Babylon” (Jerusalem) just in time to escape the carnage of God’s wrath in 70 AD.
I have no doubt that what Paul was warning them about, and rejoicing with them about will become a prophesy for our future. It might play out the same way. God’s people turn on Him to persecute the faithful.
