As long as I am in the world Better, Whensoever I am in the world; it is not the same construction as -so long as it is day." The Light shines at various times and in various degrees, whether the world chooses to be illuminated or not. Comp. John 1:5; John 8:12. Here there is special reference to His giving light both to the man's eyes and to his soul. The Pharisees prove the truth of the saying that -the darkness comprehended it not."

I am the light of the world Or, I am light to the world:no article. Contrast John 8:12.
