The Light Block produces extremely bright light when powered, which is particularly useful in the growing of plants (such as Hemp). Note that they can be powered indirectly which means that if a neighboring block is receiving power, these will light up. This allow you to, for example, place them on the ceiling, and run redstone above the ceiling to give them power, without having to do any complicated wiring.

The crafting recipe includes a glowstone filament in the center, which is what produces the light when redstone power is applied.
