Blake: God appears, and God is Light

Saturday, August 17, 2024
Meditation:
    In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.
    —John 1:4-5 (NIV)
Quotation:
God appears, and God is Light
    To those poor souls who dwell in night,
But does a human form display
    To those who dwell in realms of day.
    ... William Blake (1757-1827), Poems of William Blake, ed. William Butler Yeats, London: Lawrence & Bullen, 1893, p. 472 (see the book)
