The word "radiance" means that Jesus is shining out the light of the Fathers glory much like the sun radiates light. Elsewhere, the Bible tells us, "His radiance is like the sunlight" (Hab. 3:4).
The Bible explains that "God is Light" (1 John 1:5b), and also that "God is spirit" (John 4:24). It also calls the Holy Spirit, the "Spirit of glory" (1 Pet. 4:14), and also, "the Spirit who is from God" (1 Cor. 2:12). The radiance that shines from our Lord is the Holy Spirit. We are to come to Him and drink so that—by the radiance around Him—a river of the Holy Spirit can flow out from inside us (John 7:37-39).
