Exegesis

The main verb erchetai {ἔρχεται | ér-khe-tai} ‘comes’ is followed by pros to phos {πρὸς τὸ φῶς | pros tò phôs} ‘toward the light,’ a spatial image that in this context points to openness, scrutiny, and public visibility.

In contextJohn 3:21

But the one who does the truth comes to the light, so that his works may be disclosed, because they have been done in God .
