Romans 2:17-24
Excerpted from: The Radiance of God's Glory

Please turn over to Romans 2, verse 17. The Jews were as guilty as the Gentiles for being in darkness, and even though they should have been a light, but they only had the form of knowledge and truth in the law.

The Jews were such hypocrites that they were a cause of blasphemy among the Gentiles, because the Gentiles looked at the Jews as claiming to be God's people, but not living His way of life.

So being a light equates to illumination of knowledge and understanding of truth and much more.

Romans 2:17-24
Excerpted from: Holiness (Part 1)

Let us go to Romans 2:17, where I want you to think of yourself in this context.

We know that Paul was speaking to those Jews who were not yet converted. At least, I hope that they were not yet converted and that they have opportunity yet to repent of those things. But this makes it very plain that God's name is hallowed - or profaned - by our conduct. The third commandment is kept - or broken - by the same. This is the commandment that tests the quality of our witness.
