Used symbolically for the omnipresence of
God
. “The eyes of the
Lord
are in every place” (Prov. 15:3); “the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous” (Psa. 34:15; 1 Peter 3:12: Compare 2 Chron. 16:9; Zech. 4:10). His eyes are also upon the wicked, and His eyes will not spare, neither will He have compassion in the
day
of
judgment
(Ezek. 5:11). The eye is also used symbolically for the
organ
that transmits the
light
to the
soul
. If the eye is single—there being but one object (the
glory
of God) before the soul—the whole body is full of light; but if the eye be evil, having divers objects (as when an eye sees double), the whole body is full of
darkness
. And if the light (true light it may be) be darkness, how great is that darkness! A
Christian
in this condition may do the very things he had strongly condemned in others ({vi 23305-23306}Matt. 6:22-23; {vi 25440-25442}Luke 11:34-36).

“Study to show thyself approved unto God, … rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15).
