Bible Verses About God of Peace: 12

Bible Verses About God of Peace: 12 on Rom 15:33 and eirene.

Two people sit calmly beside a still pool among reeds in a rocky valley.

"The God of peace be with you all. Amen."

— Romans 15:33 (NIV)

People who search bible verses about God of peace want Scripture on the Romans 15:33 title — theos tēs eirēnēs — not only the broader Peace inventory alone, not Peace of God alone (Philippians 4:7's eirēnē tou theou), and not Prince of Peace alone (Isaiah 9:6). This page is a numbered list of twelve passages with the NIV text and a short note on each. Related lists: Bible verses about peace, Bible verses about Peace of God, Bible verses about Peace with God, Bible verses about Prince of Peace, Bible verses about hope, Bible verses about faith, Bible verses about salvation, Bible verses about Jesus, Bible verses about God's love, and Bible verse of the day. God of peace here means Rom 15:33's eirēnē title for God — distinct from the Peace / Peace-of-God / Prince-of-Peace lists alone.

Word study (lead theme). In Greek, "peace" is εἰρήνη eirēnē (Strong's G1515; Bible Hub G1515) — peace, harmony, wholeness. Paul names God theos tēs eirēnēs — the God of peace — and blesses the churches with that title (Romans 15:33; 16:20; 1 Corinthians 14:33; 2 Corinthians 13:11). That is not the same construction as "the peace of God" (eirēnē tou theou, Philippians 4:7) or Isaiah's "Prince of Peace." This list tracks the theos tēs eirēnēs title and related God-as-peace lines, not every peace verse and not Peace of God / Prince of Peace alone.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on Romans 15 presses the closing wish that the God of peace be with the saints (Bible Hub MHC Romans 15; Blue Letter Bible, Matthew Henry on Romans 15). (Peace, Peace of God, and Prince of Peace live on those pages; this list centers the God-of-peace title.)
