john 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

john 1:9 There was the true light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.

9. lighteth every man, &c.--rather, "which, coming into the world, enlighteneth every man"; or, is "the Light of the world" (Joh 9:5). "Coming into the world" is a superfluous and quite unusual description of "every man"; but it is of all descriptions of Christ amongst the most familiar, especially in the writings of this Evangelist (Joh 12:46; 16:28; 18:37; 1Jo 4:9; 1Ti 1:15, &c.).

john 1:9 There was the true light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
