The New Testament and Peace

It is clear from Sacred Scripture that inward and outward peace are important. The following are New Testament passages from the Douay-Rheims translation which mention "peace". To "hold your peace" means to "keep to yourself about something" or "not to speak about something". Even though it is idiomatic, it certainly involves a certain level of peace and calm and self-sacrifice. Finally, I would like to exhort you: Among other things, strive for peace! Many saints say that peace of heart is indispensable to holiness.
