Shalom is introduced as a name given in relation to Jehovah. Jehovah-Shalom is the name; literally the Lord is Peace.. This is a name that speaks in practical ways of the effect of knowing Jehovah God in our lives in very personal ways. One of the many problems encountered in living in our world today is the problem of anxiety.
Shalom, in the liturgy and in the transcendent message of the Christian scriptures, means more than a state of mind, of being or of affairs. Derived from the Hebrew root shalam â meaning to be safe or complete, and by implication, to be friendly or to reciprocate. Shalom, as term and message, seems to encapsulate a reality and hope of wholeness for the individual, within societal relations, and for the whole world.
