G2644–καταλλάσσω–katallassō

For if, when we were haters of God, the death of his Son made us at peace with him, much more, now that we are his friends, will we have salvation through his life;

κατηλλάγημεν katēllagēmen “we were reconciled”καταλλαγέντες katallagentes “having been reconciled”

(Or if she goes away from him, let her keep unmarried, or be united to her husband again); and that the husband may not go away from his wife.

καταλλαγήτω· katallagētō “she should be reconciled;”

But all things are of God, who has made us at peace with himself through Christ, and has given to us the work of making peace;

καταλλάξαντος katallaxantos “having reconciled”

That is, that God was in Christ making peace between the world and himself, not putting their sins to their account, and having given to us the preaching of this news of peace.

καταλλάσσων katallassōn “reconciling”

So we are the representatives of Christ, as if God was making a request to you through us: we make our request to you, in the name of Christ, be at peace with God.

καταλλάγητε katallagēte “do be reconciled”
