...peacemakers.

"peace" is where they are resting in now, one hopes; real "peace"... yeshua's meaning.

in cyprus they were preventing war; "peace" keepers... the english meaning.

cheers! ZoC.

[supporttheunderdog]

In English the word "peace" derives from the Latin root "pax", from where we get "pact", ie. an (uneasy?) compromise/treaty between two (opposing?) forces. "Pax Romana" meant Roman peace, where opponents were no longer able to resist Rome and had to live obediently under its rules and tax regime.

But the original Gospels were written in "Koine" not English. So when Yeshua said "blessed are the peace makers", the original text is "εἰρηνοποιοί" from the root word "εἰρηνη" ("irini").

But "irini" (as in the Aramaic "shalom") isn't simply an absence of war. It evokes a deep sense of calmness, equilibrium, tranquility, ease, of lasting contentment and warmth. You can see, this is far deeper than the "peace" evoked in English.

Cyprus doesn't need the type of peace makers Brits like BOF would like us to be. Cyprus needs more real "εἰρηνοποιοί". This is who Yeshua wished to bless. Discuss….

I think you underestimate the meaning of the word "peace" in English, as a apart from the meaning derived from the latin Pax, Peace is also the word used as the translation of and to convey the meaning of Εἰρήνη, so within English is used to describe "a deep sense of calmness, equilibrium, tranquility, ease, of lasting contentment and warmth" - this meaning was also contained in the old blessing "peace be upon you" and in the biblical phrase " the peace of God, which passeth all understanding" as translated from the Koine biblical texts.

one suffers peace: this is hell.
here, the way.

one remains as always, and
we return to where we came from
from death the everlasting life.

don't come here, with your union jack flag, and patronize me about my understanding of the word "peace" in english. i eat the english for breakfast...

as a apart from the meaning derived from the latin Pax, Peace is also the word used as the translation of and to convey the meaning of Εἰρήνη,

that's the point i'm making. "peace" is inadequate for this because of the pax connotation absent from the original Εἰρήνη. perhaps the english speaking world missed yeshua's point. perhaps it got lost in translation.

so within English is used to describe "a deep sense of calmness, equilibrium, tranquility, ease, of lasting contentment and warmth" - this meaning was also contained in the old blessing "peace be upon you" and in the biblical phrase " the peace of God, which passeth all understanding" as translated from the Koine biblical texts.

not sure what ur getting at. i think you overestimate ur ability to make a cogent point.

I thought he said "blessed are the cheese makers" or was that someone else?
