What is the blessing that comes to those who have not seen and yet believe?

To believe without seeing is the climax of Faith. The faithful shall be saved. By Faith we are saved. So much is promised to those who believe, including eternal life. Imagine, we could do all that Jesus did, and even more, only if we had faith. Those who want to see first, test God, and could miss out.

Why did Jesus use the greeting. "Peace be to you"? Was there special signiificance in this greeting?

There was a problem of lack of peace with the disciples, and Jesus, the King of Peace, always meets us at our points of need. Imagine by daybreak that day, the story of the ressurrection was ripe, pedalled by the disciples and the women. By evening, the jews faked a counter story that the disciples had actually stolen Jesus' body. By dusk there was fear on the disciples, prompted by the jewish threat and counter action. Think about the locked door and the fear of the jews. All they needed most was the reassurance by none other than Jesus himself, that he had actually risen from the dead, and was alive, and this was exactly what Jesus meant by "Peace be to you".
