Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns
αὐτὸς & ὁ Κύριος τῆς εἰρήνης
himself & the Lord ¬the ˱of˲_peace
Here, himself emphasizes that the Lord is the source of peace and that he will personally give peace to believers.
3:16 The final prayer echoes Jesus’ blessing in John 14:27 (cp. Num 6:26) and contrasts with the situation these believers faced in Thessalonica (2 Thes 1:4-10; 1 Thes 2:14). Paul was always conscious of the Lord Jesus’ presence with his people (Rom 15:33; Phil 4:9).
OET (OET-LV) And himself the master of_ the _peace, might_give to_you_all the peace through everyone in every manner.
The master be with all of_you.
OET (OET-RV) May the master of peace himself give you all peace through everyone and in every way. May the master be with all of you.
