Exegesis
The prepositional phrase apo tēs doxēs tou phōtos ekeinou {ἀπὸ τῆς δόξης τοῦ φωτὸς ἐκείνου | apò tês dóxēs toû phōtòs ekeínou} uses apo with the genitive to express cause, “because of the glory of that light,” with the demonstrative ekeinou giving deictic weight to the particular, remembered light.
In context — Acts 22:11
But as I could not see because of the glory of that light , being led by the hand by those who were with me, I came into Damascus.
