John 1:9
[That] was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into
the world. The Revised Version reads, "There was the true light,
[even the light] which lighteth every man, coming into the world".
Grammatically, both in the Greek and the English, "coming" may belong
to the "light", or "every" man. We believe that it should agree with
"light". That was the true or real Light who, when he comes into the
world, enlightens every man. Jesus says, "I am come a light into the
world" (John 12:46).
