(11) We have also a more sure word of prophecy; (12) whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day (l) dawn, and the (m) day star arise in your hearts:
(11) The truth of the gospel is by this revealed, in that it agrees wholly with the foretellings of the prophets.
(12) The doctrine of the apostles does not contradict the doctrine of the prophets, for they confirm each other by each others testimonies, but the prophets were like candles which gave light to the blind, until the brightness of the gospel began to shine.
(l) A more full and open knowledge, than was under the shadows of the law.
(m) That clearer doctrine of the gospel.
