Johannes 11:10

Listen to Johannes 11:10
10 Wer aber des Nachts wandelt, der stößt sich; denn es ist kein Licht in ihm.

Johannes 11:10 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:10

But if a man walk in the night
After the sun is set, and there is no light in the air and heavens to direct him:

he stumbleth;
at everything that lies in the way,

because there is no light in him;
there being none from above communicated to him. So our Lord suggests, that when the time of his death was come, he should then fall a prey into the hands of his enemies, but till then he should walk safe and secure; nor had he anything to fear from them, and therefore could go into Judea again, with intrepidity and unconcern.

Johannes 11:10 In-Context

8 Seine Jünger sprachen zu ihm: Meister, jenes Mal wollten die Juden dich steinigen, und du willst wieder dahin ziehen?
9 Jesus antwortete: Sind nicht des Tages zwölf Stunden? Wer des Tages wandelt, der stößt sich nicht; denn er sieht das Licht dieser Welt.
10 Wer aber des Nachts wandelt, der stößt sich; denn es ist kein Licht in ihm.
11 Solches sagte er, und darnach spricht er zu ihnen: Lazarus, unser Freund, schläft; aber ich gehe hin, daß ich ihn auferwecke.
12 Da sprachen seine Jünger: HERR, schläft er, so wird's besser mit ihm.
