Skotos is darkness — at night, in the grave, and figuratively in the soul. The New Testament uses it for the realm of sin, ignorance, and death, opposed to the kingdom of light.

God “delivered us from the domain of skotos and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son.” The gospel is not just information; it is a change of realms.
