Commentary on John 12:35
Jesus responds with urgency: 'Yet a little while is the light with you.' He identifies Himself as the light and warns of limited opportunity. The exhortation 'walk while ye have the light' calls for immediate response. Darkness represents judgment and spiritual blindness for those rejecting the light. Walking in darkness results in not knowing one's destination—spiritual lostness. This urgent appeal demonstrates grace's limited duration. Opportunity doesn't last forever. The warning anticipates Israel's hardening (v. 37-40) and foreshadows the destruction awaiting Jerusalem.
