This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
Ver. 8. For ye were sometimes darkness] Which hath in it (as Mr Dugard well noteth): 1. Error. 2. Terror. 3. Inconsistency with light. 4. Impossibility of reducing itself to light.
But now are ye light] Semper in sole sita est Rhodos, saith Sylvius. The saints are always in the sunshine.
Walk as children of light] A godly man should be like a crystal glass with a light in the midst, which appeareth through every part thereof. He is in the light, and shall be more.
