John 8:10-12
New Catholic Bible
10 Then Jesus straightened up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” 11 She replied, “No one, sir.” “Neither do I condemn you,” Jesus said. “Go on your way, and sin no more.”]
The Light Triumphs over Darkness
12 The Light of the World.[a] Jesus addressed them once again, saying,
“I am[b] the light of the world.
The one who follows me
will never walk in darkness.
Rather, he will have the light of life.”
Footnotes
- John 8:12 Here is another symbol, which has the feast of Lights for its setting and enables us to understand more fully the part Jesus intends to play in the life of human beings: he is light. We may think of the luminous cloud during the journey in the wilderness (see Ex 13:21; Wis 18:3), the form in which God was leading his people.
- John 8:12 I am: see notes on Jn 6:20 and 6:35.
