What does Jesus's greeting of 'Peace be unto you' mean?

Answered in 1 source

'Peace be unto you' signifies the reconciliation and peace Christians have through Christ with God.

'Peace be unto you' reflects the profound peace that Jesus brings to His followers, as illustrated in His first appearance to the disciples post-resurrection (John 20:21). This greeting is a reminder that through Jesus's sacrifice and resurrection, believers are reconciled with God, which is echoed in Ephesians 2:13-14, stating that He is our peace. The essence of this peace surpasses worldly understanding, encompassing both spiritual tranquility and assurance amid life's trials.
