This article aims to reflect on peace in Luke, using the methodology of comparative and interpretive reading. On one hand, the intention is to present the similarities between the account of the appearance of the resurrected Christ and the account of the birth of Jesus in Luke 2:8-20. On the other hand, elements such as divine manifestation, fear, the greeting of peace, and joy are highlighted. In this context, in Luke 24:36-49, the connection between peace, astonishment, and fear is emphasized. Consequently, the Lucan literature encourages the Christian community to deepen the master-disciple relationship through fear and joy in the experience with the resurrected Christ. This reflection allows for broadening horizons in the exegetical field in the face of current challenges such as the pandemic, wars, and political polarizations. Thus, the Christian attitude implies being capable of applying peace within the community context.
