Grace - peace
Grace is the Greek salutation, peace the Jewish. Both in the spiritual sense. Compare Num 6:25, Num 6:26. This form of salutation is common to all Paul's epistles to the churches. In Timothy and Titus, mercy is added. James alone has the ordinary conventional salutation, χαίρειν rejoice, hail, greeting. |
