The Hebrew day, from sunset to sunset, embraced the entire night

(Gen. 1:5⁵And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. (Genesis 1:5)). Death (John 9:4⁴I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. (John 9:4)); sin (1 Thess. 5.5); sorrow, sin, and death (Rev. 21:25; 22:5²⁵And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. (Revelation 21:25)
⁵And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. (Revelation 22:5)).
