Exegesis
The paired negations mēde {μηδὲ | mēdé} and the two coordinated imperatives create a balanced closing that moves from the gift of peace to the command to remain calm and fearless.
In context — John 14:27
Peace I am leaving with you; my peace I am giving to you. I am not giving to you in the same way the world gives. Let your heart not be unsettled , nor let it be afraid.
