Scripture Sunday: John 1:5


Dr. Nathan Parker

Recommended Posts

Here it is in the KJV. Would be fun to compare other translations, read it in the Greek, and hear some observations from people's research in Accordance on it:

 

John 1:5 ¶ And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

 

By the way, when I post weekly Scripture Sunday passages, feel free to dig into Accordance with them and post any discussions/insights you want to share!

The versions are all over the place in trying to bring out the point. Perhaps this quote by Chris Tomlin summarizes it well: "Do you know that all the dark won’t stop the light from getting through?"

I don't know that the quote was given in reference to John 1:5, but the thought seems to fit well.

May HE shine today, through the church!
