'World' in the Bible

The true light was that which, coming into the world, lightens every man.

He was in the world, and the world had its being through him, and the world knew him not.

On the morrow he sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, that whosoever believes on him may not perish, but have life eternal.

For God has not sent his Son into the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him.

And this is the judgment, that light is come into the world, and men have loved darkness rather than light; for their works were evil.

and they said to the woman, It is no longer on account of thy saying that we believe, for we have heard him ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.

The men therefore, having seen the sign which Jesus had done, said, This is truly the prophet which is coming into the world.

For the bread of God is he who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.

I am the living bread which has come down out of heaven: if any one shall have eaten of this bread he shall live for ever; but the bread withal which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be known in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world:

The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.

Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above. Ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he that has sent me is true, and I, what I have heard from him, these things I say to the world.

As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

And Jesus said, For judgment am I come into this world, that they which see not may see, and they which see may become blind.

do ye say of him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am Son of God?

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world;

She says to him, Yea, Lord; I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who should come into the world.

The Pharisees therefore said to one another, Ye see that ye profit nothing: behold, the world is gone after him.

He that loves his life shall lose it, and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal.

Now is the judgment of this world; now shall the prince of this world be cast out:

I am come into the world as light, that every one that believes on me may not abide in darkness;

and if any one hear my words and do not keep them, I judge him not, for I am not come that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.

Now before the feast of the passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, loved them to the end.

the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see him nor know him; but ye know him, for he abides with you, and shall be in you.

Yet a little and the world sees me no longer; but ye see me; because I live ye also shall live.

Judas, not the Iscariote, says to him, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself to us and not to the world?

I leave peace with you; I give my peace to you: not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it fear.

I will no longer speak much with you, for the ruler of the world comes, and in me he has nothing;

but that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father has commanded me, thus I do. Rise up, let us go hence.

If the world hate you, know that it has hated me before you.

If ye were of the world, the world would love its own; but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on account of this the world hates you.

And having come, he will bring demonstration to the world, of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

Verily, verily, I say to you, that ye shall weep and lament, ye, but the world shall rejoice; and ye will be grieved, but your grief shall be turned to joy.

A woman, when she gives birth to a child, has grief because her hour has come; but when the child is born, she no longer remembers the trouble, on account of the joy that a man has been born into the world.

I came out from the Father and have come into the world; again, I leave the world and go to the Father.

These things have I spoken to you that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye have tribulation; but be of good courage: I have overcome the world.

and now glorify me, thou Father, along with thyself, with the glory which I had along with thee before the world was.

I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. They were thine, and thou gavest them me, and they have kept thy word.

I demand concerning them; I do not demand concerning the world, but concerning those whom thou hast given me, for they are thine,

And I am no longer in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one as we.

And now I come to thee. And these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in them.

I have given them thy word, and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.

I do not demand that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them out of evil.

They are not of the world, as I am not of the world.

As thou hast sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world;

that they may be all one, as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us, that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

I in them and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and that thou hast loved them as thou hast loved me.

Father, as to those whom thou hast given me, I desire that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me, for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

Righteous Father, and the world has not known thee, but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I taught always in the synagogue and in the temple, where all the Jews come together, and in secret I have spoken nothing.

Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my servants had fought that I might not be delivered up to the Jews; but now my kingdom is not from hence.

Pilate therefore said to him, Thou art then a king? Jesus answered, Thou sayest it, that I am a king. I have been born for this, and for this I have come into the world, that I might bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which if they were written one by one, I suppose that not even the world itself would contain the books written.
