Exegesis
The causal conjunction hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} introduces the ground: kurios ho theos {κύριος ὁ θεός | kýrios ho theós} Himself is the source of light, expressed by the future verb phōtisei ep’ autous {φωτίσει ἐπʼ αὐτούς | phō-tí-sei ep’ autoús}, literally “will shine upon them,” which evokes both provision and favor.
In context — Revelation 22:5
And night will not be any longer, and they will not have need of the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will illumine them, and they will reign for the ages of the ages.
