"And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven,.... To continue there as luminous bodies; as enlighteners, as the word signifies, causing light, or as being the
instruments of conveying it, particularly to the earth, as follows: to give light upon the earth; and the inhabitants of it, when formed: and it was so: these lights were formed and placed in the firmament of the heaven for such uses, and served such purposes as God willed and ordered they should.
