The God of peace; this is a frequent title of God in Scripture; he is called the God of peace, Romans 16:20 2 Corinthians 13:11 Philippians 4:9 1 Thessalonians 5:23 2 Thessalonians 3:16 Hebrews 13:20. Here it fits his great argument, which was to persuade the believing Romans to be at peace amongst themselves, and not to contend about indifferent things. Be with you all: three times in this chapter doth the apostle lift up a prayer for the believing Romans; see Romans 16:5,13; and this is more comprehensive than the other two. If God be with us, no good thing can be wanting to us. God's presence is inclusive of all good, and exclusive of all evil. Amen: see Romans 16:27.
