Luke 11:36

36 si ergo corpus tuum totum lucidum fuerit non habens aliquam partem tenebrarum erit lucidum totum et sicut lucerna fulgoris inluminabit te

Luke 11:36 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 11:36

If thy whole body therefore be full of light
That is, if the whole soul, as the Ethiopic version reads, be full of Gospel light, through the illuminating influences of the blessed Spirit accompanying the word:

having no part dark;
every power and faculty of the soul being affected with it, and influenced by it, though, as yet, the light and knowledge of evangelical things is not perfect in any:

the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of
a candle doth give thee light;
the whole soul shall be as full of light and joy, which the Gospel always brings with it, as a room is full of light, when a candle is lighted, and shines brightly, and burns clearly in it.

Luke 11:36 In-Context

34 lucerna corporis tui est oculus tuus si oculus tuus fuerit simplex totum corpus tuum lucidum erit si autem nequam fuerit etiam corpus tuum tenebrosum erit

35 vide ergo ne lumen quod in te est tenebrae sint

36 si ergo corpus tuum totum lucidum fuerit non habens aliquam partem tenebrarum erit lucidum totum et sicut lucerna fulgoris inluminabit te

37 et cum loqueretur rogavit illum quidam Pharisaeus ut pranderet apud se et ingressus recubuit
