φᾱνός G5322
Torches, lanterns; portable light sources carried at night, especially for outdoor use
This noun designates torches or lanterns—portable lighting devices. In John 18:3, the detachment of soldiers and officers coming to arrest Jesus in Gethsemane bring 'lanterns and torches' along with weapons. The detail suggests they expected resistance or a chase through dark terrain, requiring artificial light to search. The mention also creates irony: those seeking to arrest the Light of the World bring torches to find him in darkness.

1. sense 1 — In John 18:3, Judas guides a detachment of soldiers to arrest Jesus, and they come 'with lanterns and torches and weapons.' The torches and lanterns (Spanish 'antorchas,' torches; French 'lanterne,' lantern; German 'Laternen,' lanterns) suggest nighttime arrest and possibly expectation of a violent confrontation or chase requiring light to pursue Jesus or his disciples. The detail creates dramatic irony—those seeking to seize the Light of the World must carry artificial lights into the darkness to find him. 1×
