It struck me when I was preparing Ephesians 1:2

that Paul greets the saints with the Greek greeting "Grace" and the Hebrew greeting "Peace". He, of course, means far more by those words than the man in the corner café in Athens or Jerusalem ever imagined.


Quite often French people greet each other with the French greeting "Salut". We, of course, mean far more by that word than the chaps in the corner café imagine. Salut means salvation.
