Because you have known Him who is afrom the beginning.
I write to you, young men,
Because you have overcome the wicked one.
I write to you, little children,
Because you have bknown the Father.

1 John 2:11
Blinded (etuflwsen). First aorist active indicative of tuflow, the very verb and form used in II Corinthians 4:4 of the god of this age to keep men from beholding the illumination of the gospel of the glory of Christ who is the image of God. The first part of the verse repeats verse I John 2:9, but adds this vivid touch of the blinding power of darkness. In the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky the fish in Echo River have eye-sockets, but no eyes.
