No Night

 November 10 – No night – Rev 22:5

 

Vs 5 – This part of the chapter ends with the reality of light.  In Jewish thought darkness is associated with evil and light with good.  So evil has been destroyed and so light is in full effect.  There will be no night true light has dispelled it.  There will be no need for a lamp or sun.  The familiar objects that give light will not be needed.  The Lord God will give the light.  This will be a place of eternal day.  The New Jerusalem will be displays the glory, splendor and light of God Himself.  Then this verse points out that the Lord will forever and ever.  This period will never end.  This city and its beauty and majesty will be forever.  The people who live here can and will live here forever.  It is their forever home, as reward for faithful and obedient service.
