Of course, the natural light of the sun or of fire cannot make dense bodies such as clothing, walls, rocks and the like, translucent; but the divine, uncreated, supernatural light is immeasurably more subtle, brilliant, and bright. It made Christ's raiment white as snow and shine brilliantly. -- Blessed Johann Gerhard, Postilla II:278
