Latin term
ex ambiguitate lux ambigua oritur
Latin to English
Law/Patents
Law: Contract(s)
This is an adage cited in a French article about the law of the sea. This appears after the point is made that a particular clause in the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea is difficult to interpret and most likely will become clear only when implemented.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

out of equivocation arises an equivocal elucidation
'Lux' is here used in a metaphorical sense, cf. Cicero, de oratore, 2.9.36: 'historia testis temporum, lux veritatis', 'history, a witness for the ages, the elucidation of the truth'.
