Following-on logically, Jesus further spoke to them
saying...
·
"Emphatically
I am (again there is emphasis by including a definite word for “I” – I myself
am)
- the light
of the world (the absolute light that God is making available to/for
mankind, human-beings, who inhabit the ordered-arrangement that God
created);
·
the person who is
following me (coming after me)
- would
never walk (the word translated “never” comes from two Greek words both
meaning “no” or “not” – the double negative emphasizes the point – that
person would not ever walk around, he would not at any time behave during
the everyday living of his life, conducting himself)
§ in the darkness (within the character, attributes, and
sphere of action of the lack or absence of God's light)
- but on the
contrary,
- at a
future time he will have the light of the life (referring to the fact
that he will receive God's life which is holy spirit-life, eternal life;
God's light consists of, issues, emanates His life)."
