Follow after peace (
eirhnhn diwkete). Give peace a chase as if in a hunt.
With all men (
meta pantwn). Like Paul's use of
diwkw with
eirhnhn in
Romans 14:19 and his to
ex umwn (so far as proceeds from you) in
Hebrews 12:18 . This lesson the whole world needs including Christians.
Sanctification (
agiasmon). Consecration as in
1 Thessalonians 4:7 ;
Romans 6:19 , etc.
Without which (
ou cwri). Ablative case of the relative with
cwri (post positive here). About seeing God compare
Matthew 5:8 where we have
kaqaroi.
