Finally, brothers, good-by. Aim for perfection, listen to my appeal, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

Greet one another with a holy kiss.

All the saints send their greetings.

May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
(the following is from Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary -- www.christnotes.org)
"Commentary on 2 Corinthians 13:11-14
Here are several good exhortations. God is the Author of peace and
Lover of concord; he hath loved us, and is willing to be at peace with
us. And let it be our constant aim so to walk, that separation from our
friends may be only for a time, and that we may meet in that happy world
where parting will be unknown. He wishes that they may partake all the
benefits which Christ of his free grace and favour has purchased; the
Father out of his free love has purposed; and the Holy Ghost applies and
bestows."
