Definition: pertaining to being well lighted
Notes: In a number of languages one cannot speak of an object being ‘full of light,’ for light is not spoken of as a substance. It is, of course, normally possible to speak of something as ‘having light inside’ (for example, the occurrence of light within a room). However, rather than speaking positively of the occurrence of light, it is sometimes more satisfactory to indicate the absence of darkness, for example, ‘there was no darkness there’ or, as in RV MAT 6:22 · LV MAT 6:22 · Read together MAT 6:22, ‘your whole body will have no darkness in it.’
