 {Revelation to the Gentiles} (apokalupsin ethn(936e)).
Objective genitive. The Messiah is to be light (ph(9373)) for the
Gentiles in darkness ( 1:70 ) and glory (doxa) for Israel (cf.
 Ro 9:1-5  Isa 49:6 ). The word ethnos originally meant just a
crowd or company, then a race or nation, then the nations other
than Israel (the people, ho laos) or the people of God. The
word Gentile is Latin from _gens_, a tribe or nation. But the
world-wide mission of the Messiah comes out clearly in these
early chapters in Luke.
