I'm sorry - but I've never understood. I've heard it before, but I don't know what language it is or what it means or where it came from or...or nothing.

What does Shalom mean?

Thanx, Whirlwind for asking that question. I never knew what it meant either. It's a beautiful word!

Shalom aleichem means peace be unto you. The reply is aleichem shalom.

Jesus often used it.
