Light is composed of photons, so we could ask if the photon has mass. The answer is then definitely "no": the photon is a massless particle. ... Energy, they say, is equivalent to mass according to Einstein's famous formula E = mc2. They also say that a photon has momentum, and momentum p is related to mass m by p = mv.

Any material object is a lump of energy.  That is a major implication of Einstein's equation "E=mc2".  Einstein showed how the mass of an object is a measure of the amount of energy it contains.  The more massive an object is, the more energy you can extract from it (with appropriate means) to do some work; the more energy an object has, the more massive it is and the harder it is to change its motion or lack of motion.
