The Lamp Shines So People Can See. Watch Out That Your Eye Can Receive The Light

33 “No one having lit a lamp puts it in a crypt[a], nor under the basket, but on the lampstand, in order that the ones coming in may see the light. 34 The lamp[b] of the body is your eye. When your eye is single[c], your whole body is also full-of-light. But when it is bad, your body is also full-of-darkness. 35 So be watching-out that the light in[d] you is not darkness!
