New revelation has been given to me in the understanding of Genesis 1:1-5. I have argued in the past with some that the day begins in the morning: I still hold to that. In the past I was mistaken for falsely correlating the evening with Darkness/Night. Why does it matter?
God tells us plainly through Moses that He separated the Light from the Darkness: this is to indicate that these two periods of time are never to be mixed. In Genesis 1:14-19 we read that the sun rules over the day and the moon and stars rule over the night and, they divide the light from the darkness (cf. Psalms 136:7-9). The sun rules the day meaning that the morning is when the Sun rises from the east to mark the beginning of the day; noon is when the Sun is at its highest point in the sky to mark the middle of the day in the north; and, evening is when the Sun sets in the west to mark the end of the day: therefore Evening and Morning are only part of the time when the Sun is out. By the time the Sun is completely gone then it is no longer evening (i.e. the day time) but, night time.
As I did more research into the length of a day I found that during the period of Christ and all the way back to Adam a day was measured by counting the time between sunrise and sunset. Jesus' statement of 1 Day = 12 Hours (see John 11:9) means that a day is always twelve hours in length and this number of hours never changes: it is the length of each of these hours which change throughout the year: in like fashion the number of months in a year is always twelve and never changes: for these numbers are according to twelve sons of Israel (1 Chronicles 27:1-15) but, the length of each month does. This same logic applies to the Night as well.
Upon further research I learned that Babylon and Egypt were the first two nations to mix the periods of day and night together: and it is to these two whom we owe our modern reckoning of 24 Hours = 1 Day. The problem with this is that God separated the Light from the Darkness: therefore what God has divided let no man unite; and what God has united let no man divide. This mixing of Light and Darkness by the Bablyonians and Egyptians is one of many reasons why God tells us to not go back to them and to come out of them. It is clear from scripture that God never included the night time to be counted with the day time! And how we have missed such an obvious fact! Therefore we sin if we measure a day from sunset to sunset; sunrise to sunrise; midnight to midnight; or day and night: scripture tells us that a day is always measured from sunrise to sunset:
Evening and Morning = 1 Day
Sunset and Sunrise = 1 Day
How do we correlate Jesus' statement with what we read from Enoch who says that 1 Day = 18 Parts (1 Enoch 72:10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34) and Moses who says that 1 Day = 36 Moments (Jasher 88:63-64)? The heavenly lights travel in a circle as observation of their motions in the sky reveals that all objects conform to the shape of area they are traversing. The heavenly lights then traverse a circle of 360° in circumference therefore:
360° ÷ 12 Months = 30° per Month
360° ÷ 04 Seasons = 90° per Season
Each degree therefore equals one day:
360 Days ÷ 12 Months = 30 Days per Month
360 Days ÷ 04 Seasons = 90 Days per Season
The day is a smaller circle within the year which we may divide up in like fashion as the year:
36 Moments ÷ 18 Parts = 2 Moments per Part
36 Moments ÷ 12 Hours = 3 Moments per Hour
36 Moments ÷ 4 Divisions = 9 Moments per Division
In short this means that moments are greater unit of time than parts. Parts are a greater unit of time than hours. And hours are a lesser unit of time than that of parts and moments. It stands then that we must not measure the hours according to our modern reckoning of the hour which we inherited from Babylon as nature has proven that an hour is not always sixty minutes in duration. Instead let us just look up at the sky as our forefather Adam did.
What this means for us concerning the Sabbath Day is that we only observe the Sabbath when the Sun is out and rules the Day/Light.
In conclusion it is clear that the day begins in the morning and not the evening: for the evening is the end of the day while the morning is the beginning of the day. I have provided clear evidence that the sun and moon and stars keep track of the hours, days, and years by acting as signs for the seasons: nothing else. We are never to mix the Light and Dark seasons together to make up one day. The only acceptable form of measuring the day is from the time between sunrise and sunset. Keeping track of the day according to scripture is much simpler than tracking it the way man has failed to do many times.
