Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(18) From darkness to light.--The words gain a fresh interest if we think of them as corresponding with the Apostle's own recovery from blindness. The imagery, though naturally common throughout Scripture, taking its place among the earliest and most widely received of the parables of the spiritual life, was specially characteristic of St. Paul. (Comp. Romans 13:12; 2Corinthians 4:6; Ephesians 5:8-13; Colossians 1:12; 1Thessalonians 5:5.)Among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.--Better, have been sanctified; the Greek participle being in the perfect. The word, as always, expresses primarily the idea of a completed consecration rather than of a perfected holiness (Hebrews 9:13; Hebrews 10:10; Hebrews 13:12); but the one thought passes naturally into the other. The last six words may be connected grammatically either with "sanctified" or with "receive." On internal grounds the latter is, perhaps, the best construction. Faith, i.e., is theoretically connected with "forgiveness of sins," as well as with the "inheritance," which implies sanctification. . . .
