Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
All Commentaries on Ephesians 6:23 Go To Ephesians 6
Jerome
AD 420
There are many gifts bestowed by God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, but of all these peace has a crucial place. This peace passes all understanding. It preserves the body and mind of the saints. It is a certain serenity and tranquillity of a mind at rest. It is protected from the universal storm and maelstrom of perturbations. So also is “love with faith,” which at the same time is given to us by God the Father and the Holy Spirit, so that we may love God from the whole heart and our neighbor as ourselves. .
