AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 5:8 For once you were darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light [live as those who are native-born to the Light] |
Subject: Walking in the light of the Lord. |
Bible Note: The 1977 copyright of the NASB for Ephesians 5:8 had lower case renderings for the word "light". The 1995 copyright as you can see above has the word "Light" capitalized for both occurances. Personally, I feel that we should see in our capitalization choices the difference between the Light of the world, (the Son of God) and us as sons of God and as lights in the world. I see Ephesians 5:8, NASB,1977, as a companion verse for Isaiah 2:5. We are to walk as light in the Lord. Ephesians 5:7, NASB, 1977, "Therefore do not be partakers with them; 8 for you were formerly darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth), 10 trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord." Isaiah 2:5, "Come, house of Jacob, and let us walk in the light of the Lord." Isaiah 60:1, "Arise, shine; for your light has come, And the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. 2 For behold, darkness will cover the earth, And deep darkness the peoples; But the Lord will rise upon you, And His glory will appear upon you. 3 And nations will come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising." John 9:5, "While I am in the world, I am the Light of the world." 1 John 1:5, 1995, NASB, "This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all."
