## Luke 11:33-34 in Context (Verses 30–37 KJV)
 
 [30 ](/kjv/luke/11/30) For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
 
 [31 ](/kjv/luke/11/31) The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon *is* here.
 
 [32 ](/kjv/luke/11/32) The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas *is* here.
 
 [33 ](/kjv/luke/11/33) No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth *it* in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
 
 [34 ](/kjv/luke/11/34) The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when *thine eye* is evil, thy body also *is* full of darkness.
 
 [35 ](/kjv/luke/11/35) Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
 
 [36 ](/kjv/luke/11/36) If thy whole body therefore *be* full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.
 
 [37 ](/kjv/luke/11/37) ¶ And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.
 
[Luke 10](/kjv/luke/10) [Luke 12](/kjv/luke/12)
