The Lord our Peace translated as, Jehovah Shalom,” is one of many Old Testament names for God and is first used by Gideon when the angel of the Lord appeared to him at Ophrah. It reads in Judges 6:24 (NIV) “So Gideon built an altar to the LORD there and called it The LORD Is Peace. To this day, it stands in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.”
