734 B

Everything is revealed by the light

Just as light reveals things that were hidden in the physical world, so the light of Christ reveals the evil spiritual actions of unbelievers in the spiritual world. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

Awake, you who sleep, and rise from the dead

Unbelievers need to wake up from being dead spiritually just as a person who has died must come alive again in order to respond. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

Christ will shine on you

Christ will enable an unbeliever to understand his provision of forgiveness and new life just as light shows what is actually there that was hidden by darkness. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
