“16Let your light (shmash: service, ministry, etc..) so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father (YHWH: creator’s word and works)which is in heaven (shamayim: the sky, where the celestial bodies revolve [a place set-apart from earth; where YHWH resides and before the earth], etc..”
Strong’s Hebrew Lexicon:
Light: 8120 shmash shem-ash’ (Aramaic) corresponding to the root of 8121 through the idea of activity implied in day-light; to serve:–minister.
Heaven: 8064 shamayim shaw-mah’-yim dual of an unused singular shameh {shaw-meh’}; from an unused root meaning to be lofty; the sky (as aloft; the dual perhaps alluding to the visible arch in which the clouds move, as well as to the higher ether where the celestial bodies revolve):–air, X astrologer, heaven(-s).
