John 1:9 - Arno Geneva Study Bible

Bible Comments

(5) [That] was (p) the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

(5) When the Son of God saw that men did not acknowledge him by his works, although they were endued with understanding (which he had given to all of them), he exhibited himself unto his people to be seen by them with their physical eyes: yet not even then did they acknowledge him or receive him.

(p) Who alone and properly deserves to be called the light, for he shines by his own accord and borrows light from no one.

John 1:9

9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
