Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerses 15-17. - Secondly, walking in the light excludes all love of the world. This is another form of darkness. Verse 15. - Love not the world. Obviously, both "love" and "the world" are used in a different sense in John 3:16, where it is said that "God loved the world." The one love is selfish, the other unselfish. In the one case "the world" means the sinful elements of human life, in the other the human race. It is most important to distinguish the different meanings of κόσμος in the New Testament. Connected with κόμειν and comere, it means (1) ornament (1 Peter 3:3); (2) the ordered universe, mundus (Romans 1:20); (3) the earth (John 1:9); . . .
