SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:34
La lmpara del cuerpo es el ojo; pues si tu ojo fuere sincero, tambin todo tu cuerpo ser resplandeciente; mas si fuere malo, tambin tu cuerpo ser tenebroso.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 11:34
Verse 34. The light of the body is the eye] Or, the eye is the lamp of the body. See on Matt. vi. 22, &c. The 35th and 36th verses are wanting in some MSS., and are variously read in others.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 34. The light of the body is the eye , etc.] The Vulgate Latin and all the eastern versions read the light of thy body is thine eye. The sense is, that as the eye gives light, to the body, and the several members of it, by which they are guided and directed; so the understanding is the light of the soul, and the guide to all the powers and faculties of it; therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light : as when the eye is free from vicious humours, and its sight is clear, the whole body reaps the advantage of it, and is perfectly illuminated by it; so when the eye of the understanding is opened and enlightened by the Spirit of God, into the truths of the Gospel, and a single regard is had unto them, and to the glory of Christ in them, the whole soul is filled with light, joy, and comfort: but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness ; as when the eye of the body is attended with any bad humours that hinder the sight, all the members of it are in darkness; so, when the understanding is darkened through the blindness and ignorance there is in men, with respect to Gospel truths, all the powers and faculties of the soul are in a very miserable and uncomfortable condition. The 35th and 36th verses are not in Beza's most ancient copy.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 29-36 - Christ promised that there should be one sign more given, even the sig of Jonah the prophet; which in Matthew is explained, as meaning the resurrection of Christ; and he warned them to improve this sign. But though Christ himself were the constant preacher in any congregation and worked miracles daily among them, yet unless his grace humble their hearts, they would not profit by his word. Let us not desire mor evidence and fuller teaching than the Lord is pleased to afford us. We should pray without ceasing that our hearts and understandings may be opened, that we may profit by the light we enjoy. And especially tak heed that the light which is in us be not darkness; for if our leadin principles be wrong, our judgment and practice must become more so.
