Shalom signifie paix, mais bien plus qu'absence de conflit. C'est plénitude, complétude et épanouissement dans toute relation : avec Dieu, avec autrui, avec le monde.

Shalom is one of the great words of the Hebrew Bible. It pictures life as it was meant to be — whole, healthy, at rest, and rightly ordered. To wish someone shalom is to wish them total well-being, not just calm.

Ultimately shalom is God’s gift and goal. The prophets long for it; the Messiah is the “Prince of Peace” (Sar Shalom). The New Testament’s peace (eirēnē) inherits this fullness, secured by Christ who “is our peace.”
