The Jesus Stuff - Peace
What exactly is peace?
peace- n.
1. Freedom from quarrels and disagreement; harmonious relations
2. Inner contentment; serenity


In English, the word "peace" conjures up a passive picture, one showing an absence of civil disturbance or hostilities, or a personality free from internal and external strife. The biblical concept of peace is larger than that and rests heavily on the Hebrew root slm, which means "to be complete" or "to be sound." The verb conveys both a dynamic and a static meaning" to be complete or whole" or "to live well.”
-Baker's Evangelical Dictionary of Biblical Theology
