Darkness and light are commonly used metaphors for describing ethical and spiritual antithesis in Scripture. In verse 8 Paul uses the metaphors of darkness and light to describe the spiritual transition from death to life. This converion experience forms the basis for Paul's call to reject participation in the sins which bring judgment described in verse 5 and 7. The positive command to walk as children of light follows up the description of spritiual transition expressed in verse 8 and is spelled out in verse 10 as a life of testing or approving what ideas and actions are pleasing to the Lord in the full scope and sweep of life with all its varied circumstances.
