A remarkable expression; 2Ti 1:10; Joh 14:18.-ΕὐΗΓΓΕΛΊΣΑΤΟ, preached) The verb for the participle; comp. ποιήσας, Eph 2:14. He announced peace with His own mouth to the apostles, Luk 24:36; Joh 20:19; Joh 20:21; Joh 20:26; and by them to others.-εἰρήνην ὑμῖν τοῖς μακρὰν, Κ.Τ.Λ.) Act 2:39, note.-ΚΑῚ ΤΟῖς) There is great elegance in mentioning ΕἸΡΉΝΗΝ, peace, only once in this passage. The peace of both is undivided.
