  4        2, V     |          since they have not the light that proceeds from the knowledge
  5        2, IX    |         the words, "Let there be light," and "Let there be a firmament,"
  6        2, XIV   |         Him, might think to make light of the admission, as he

  8        2, XLIX  |     express terms as follows: "O light and truth! he distinctly

 28        4, XLII  |       these things would come to light." But how should they, who

 30        4, XLII  |          power, bring forth into light the whole of the Jewish
 31        4, LV    |      sufficient to say regarding light, "And it was light;" and

 36        4, XCV   |    chooses. But we pray that the light of the knowledge of the
 37        5, X     |     heard the words, "Ye are the light of I the world," and, "Let
 38        5, X     |       the world," and, "Let your light so shine before men, that
 39        5, X     |        reflection of everlasting light," should be so impressed
 40        5, X     |          with the (mere) visible light of sun, and moon, and stars,
 41        5, X     |         account of that sensible light of theirs, they should deem
 42        5, X     | possessed of so great a rational light of knowledge, and of the
 43        5, X     |       knowledge, and of the true light, and the light of the world,
 44        5, X     |          the true light, and the light of the world, and the light

 46        5, X     |         the sake of the sensible light which is admired by the
 47        5, X     |         of the rational and true light, if indeed the stars in

 51        5, X     |      things, while that rational light is derived perhaps from
 52        5, XI    |           But even this rational light itself ought not to be worshipped
 53        5, XI    |         and understands the true light, by sharing in which these
 54        5, XI    |           the Father of the true light,--of whom it has been said, "
 55        5, XI    |        it has been said, "God is light, and in Him there is no
 56        5, XI    |          and stars because their light is visible and celestial,
 57        5, XI    |          worthy of homage to the light of sparks and lamps. So

 62        5, XI    |         who is light of the true light. Nor is it with a view to
 63        5, XIII  |        all ye stars, and thou, O light," and, "Praise Him, ye heaven

 65        5, XXX   |      with the sentiments of the "light," and of the "reflection"
 66        5, XXX   |       reflection" of the eternal light. But when they departed

 68        6, III   |       bursts forth suddenly as a light in the soul, as from a fire
 69        6, III   |     custom and familiar usage, a light becomes suddenly kindled
 70        6, V     |                    V.~But that a light is suddenly kindled in the
 71        6, V     |          when the prophet said, "Light ye for yourselves the light
 72        6, V     |      Light ye for yourselves the light of knowledge." John also,
 73        6, V     |       life, and the life was the light of men;" which "true light
 74        6, V     |       light of men;" which "true light lighteneth every man that
 75        6, V     | understanding), and maketh him a light of the world: "For this
 76        6, V     |          of the world: "For this light shone in our hearts, to
 77        6, V     |          our hearts, to give the light of the glorious Gospel of
 78        6, V     |     these words: "The LORD is my light and my salvation: whom shall
 79        6, V     |         lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path;" and again, "
 80        6, V     |        my path;" and again, "The light of Thy countenance, O LORD,
 81        6, V     |        towards us;" and, "In Thy light we shall see light." And
 82        6, V     |        In Thy light we shall see light." And the Logos, exhorting
 83        6, V     |     exhorting us to come to this light, says, in the prophecies
 84        6, V     |    thyself, O Jerusalem; for thy light is come, and the glory of
 85        6, V     |        death, upon them hath the light arisen;" and again, "The
 86        6, V     |          in darkness saw a great light." Observe now the difference
 87        6, V     |          prophets regarding the "light" of the blessed; and notice
 88        6, V     |          divine spirit; and this light is nourished within them
 89        6, V     |       said to have preserved the light of the torches of the five
 90        6, VI    |        of all men onwards to the light?"--let us then consider
 91        6, VII   |        question and answer sheds light on the thoughts of those
 92        6, XIX   |        the Corinthians: "For our light affliction, which is but
 93        6, XX    |        deemed all affliction as "light" and as "nothing," and during
 94        6, XX    |          deemed every calamity a light thing, seeing we also have "
 95        6, XXVII |      party being named angels of light, the others 'archontics;' "
 96        6, XXXI  |        being already part of the light of the son and of the father:
 97        6, XLIX  |          over it;" and what the "light" which was created, and
 98        6, L     |   elapsed before the creation of light and heaven, and sun, and
 99        6, L     |         the words, "Let there be light, and there was light," and
100        6, L     |          be light, and there was light," and these, "God called
101        6, L     |       and these, "God called the light day," it has been stated
102        6, LI    |        be to them an everlasting light, and God will be their glory.
103        6, LI    |         the words, "Let there be light," as if they were the expression
104        6, LI    |       The Creator did not borrow light from above, like those persons
105        6, LI    |          why did he lend him the light?" So far are we from offering
106        6, LIX   |        passage, "He was the true Light, which lighteneth every
107        6, LX    |    regard to the creation of the light upon the first day, and
108        6, LXVI  |  darkness into the brightness of light, being unable to withstand
109        6, LXVI  |    Creator of all things, who is light; while, on the other hand,
110        6, LXVI  |      other hand, every one is in light who has followed the radiance
111        6, LXVI  |        the Gentiles--saw a great light, and to them who sat in
112        6, LXVI  |       region and shadow of death light is sprung up,"--the God
113        6, LXVII |         however, by means of the light of the Word, disperse the
114        6, LXVII |          into "the brightness of light" that Celsus leads us forth:
115        6, LXVII |   contrary, to transport us from light into darkness, making the
116        6, LXVII |    darkness, making the darkness light and the light darkness,
117        6, LXVII |       the darkness light and the light darkness, and exposing himself

119        6, LXVII |          darkness for light, and light for darkness." But we, the
120        6, LXVII |       see the difference between light and darkness, prefer by
121        6, LXVII |        to take our stand "in the light," and will have nothing
122        6, LXVII |        darkness at all. The true light, moreover, being endued
123        6, LXVII |      manifested, and to whom his light; for he does not display
124        7, I     |          truth of God would shed light into our hearts and scatter

126        7, XVII  |          not to suppose that the light of Him who is God the Word
127        7, XXXI  |        heaven, and that the true light." As Celsus has deferred
128        7, XXXI  |      instance, there is the true light, and another heaven beyond
129        7, XXXIV |        the law of the Lord gives light to the bodily eyes, or that
130        7, XLI   |       and even Him who has given light and taught the way of piety
131        7, XLVII |       notwithstanding the bright light of knowledge with which
132        7, LI    |       His disciples, "Ye are the light of the world," and of the
133        7, LI    |         the Word, who says, "The light shineth in darkness," then
134        7, LI    |      darkness," then we shall be light to those who are in darkness

136        8, XIV   |    brightness of the everlasting light, the unspotted mirror of
137        8, XXVII |          demons. "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall

139        8, LIV   |     foretold of Him, arose as "a light to them that sat in darkness
