Answer 3

I am a Christian but I know that the Hebrew word “Shalom” means “peace” or “wholeness”. Interestingly, there’s a passage in the New Testament in which Christ says to His disciples shortly before His crucifixion, “My peace I leave with you.” The word He used for “peace” was probably Aramaic, but it was equivalent to “Shalom.”

Source(s): A Christian book I read once. Can’t remember the title or author.

Answer 5

"Shalom" means 'peace'; but it is used as a greeting or farewell. In Jewish culture when you meet someone you say 'Shalom', also when you are leaving.

Answer 6

Peace. Compare with Salaam. Hebrew and Arabic are both Semitic languages. Unfortunately the true meaning of the word seems to have escaped several people who use the word in either version.
