shalom lekhem

pronounced sha-LOM la-KHEM

“Peace to you” — what Yeshua said in Hebrew to His disciples after the resurrection, and still an ordinary Hebrew greeting

also written: shalom lakhem, shalom lachem, shalom lekhem

In Scripture World English Bible

He said, “Peace be to you. Don’t be afraid. Your God, and the God of your father, has given you treasure in your sacks. I received your money.” He brought Simeon out to them.

Genesis 43:23 The Hebrew text uses a plural “peace to you,” the biblical form represented by shalom lekhem.

You shall tell him, ‘Long life to you! Peace be to you, and peace be to your house, and peace be to all that you have.

1 Samuel 25:6 The blessing shows how biblical shalom can extend over a household and possessions.
