What Does Peace I Leave With You Mean?
Jesus does not sign off with a casual goodbye. In John 14:27 he leaves his own peace with his disciples in the middle of a real farewell, and he says plainly that it does not work the way the world's giving works.
John 14:27: What Does the Name Peace Mean?
In John 14:27 Jesus does not define peace as a mood or a truce. He gives his own peace to disciples who are about to be scattered, and he ties that gift to his going away and coming again.
