Abstract: According to one embodiment, a light-emitting device includes a substrate, a plurality of light-emitting elements and a sealing resin. The substrate is formed in a substantially rectangular shape. The plurality of light-emitting elements forms a plurality of rows by being arranged in a direction perpendicular to a longer dimension of the substrate. The rows are arranged in a longer direction of the substrate with a gap provided therebetween. The gap is set between the rows such that illumination intensity is evenly produced. The sealing resin coves each of the rows of the light-emitting elements.
