         DefinitionShort: to illuminate an area surrounding an object

         Glosses: to shine around

         Comments: There may be difficulties involved in expressing the concept of ‘to shine around,’ since a more or less literal rendering might suggest a particular circle of light moving around an object. A more satisfactory way of dealing with this problem of ‘to shine around’ is to say ‘it was light there’ or ‘light shone upon me.’ In the case of {S:04402601300028}, one may translate ‘I saw a light from the sky there where I was.’
