Light and Darkness in Antigone and the Gospel of John of the Holy Bible

The light and darkness that Antigone and John discovered as a child, my world is fascinated by a beautiful Fisher-Price toy called Lite-Brite. By putting colorful little claws in the detailed guide, you can turn monotonous and dimly-printed paper into a fine work of art. The light that paints plastic nails is closely related to the concept of light and dark in the play of John and Sophocles of Antigone.

Light and darkness are indispensable to the Gospel of John and Sophocles Theater Antigone. In these two literary works one functions as a sacred tool to convey high level messages to ignorant people dressed in the dark. The purpose of these messengers is similar, but there is a big difference between them. Teiresias provides individuals with advice to bring a better life on the planet. The Gospel of John shows that Jesus came to the earth to bring about just enlightenment. Jesus came to bring salvation to the public. In Sophocles' antigone, Tiiresias said "Honest advice is the most precious gift" (Antigone, 103). John objected to the words of secular saints. Because people's behavior is paler and weaker than Jesus' behavior as compared to Jesus. Jesus condemned the judgment of people, "You must judge by the flesh, I will not judge anyone, for John the most precious gift is the gift of God's love.

John 's Gospel and Sophocles' Teiresias shared many common concepts about light and darkness in his play Antigone. Both of them emphasized that secular means can not find truth and enlightenment. The blind Prophet Theresius and humble Messiah Jesus Christ shared the message of higher existence with those who have not yet experienced light. Indeed, Teiresias tried to follow exquisite paths, but his limitations of human thought and action could not provide redemption to ignorant masses. In addition to opening enlightenment, Jesus took his sacred purpose of being saved. Christ not only emphasizes the existence of matter, but also explains what belongs to sacred territory. Teiresias' information has greatly changed the lives of individuals. Jesus' message broke through the barrier of ethnocentricism and put the whole world in the light.
