For a collection of other versions see BibleHub John 20:26
"After eight days" in Greek brings the chronology to the following Sunday after Easter. [2] This week may correspond to the first week in John 1:19–2:1 and the last week before his death in John 12:1–19:31 [3]
The doors were again "locked",(Greek perfect verb: κεκλεισμένων, kekleismenōn ; same as in John 20:19) indicating the continuous fear among the disciples, [2] but Jesus could enter and be in their midst. [3]
The words "Peace be with you" (Ancient Greek : Εἰρήνη ὑμῖν, Eirēnē hymin [1] ) is a common traditional Jewish greeting [4] still in use today (shalom alekem or שלום לכםshalom lekom; [1] cf. 1 Samuel 25:6 [5] ), [6] also spoken by Jesus in John 20:19 and 21. [5] Jesus' words of "peace" at this time can be seen as giving a reassurance for the disciples. [2]
