Exegesis
The adversative alla {ἀλλὰ | allà} then introduces a sharp contrast with eirenes {εἰρήνης | eirḗnēs}, also in the genitive, producing a balanced “not of X but of Y” pattern that foregrounds God’s identity as fundamentally aligned with peace rather than confusion.
In context — 1 Corinthians 14:33
For God is not a God of disorder , but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.
