33 “No one, after lighting a lamp, puts it away in a cellar nor under a basket, but on the lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light.

*Jesus taught when you light a lamp* *You don’t hide under a bush but let it shine bright.* *You place your lamp on a stand so everyone can see its light.* *He taught us that our eye is the lamp of our body* *If it is clear it can see the light even in the darkness of night.* *However if that light is not shining brightly* *Your light is not shining with Gods’ holy rays.* *But if it is wholly illumined it shines through the darkness as it does on The brightest of days.*
