The phrase has biblical origin, in the greeting of an Angel announcing the arrival of the son of God to some shepherds; and we can hear it in some Catholic masses during the Glory, in the Liturgy of the Word: "Glory to God in heaven, and on earth peace to the men who love the Lord". But from the eighteenth to the nineteenth century many celebrants did not conclude the ceremony with an "Amen" or "You can go in peace" but with the expression "Here peace, and then Gloria", which became a popular phrase to settle an argument or end any matter.
