RBT Translation:
From the Night of herself, to the Day of Himself
He is saying to themselves, come and you will perceive. They came therefore and perceived where he is abiding and they stayed close beside himself, the Day of that one. She was an hour like the tenth.59
"For all/the whole of yourselves are sons of Light and sons of Day. We are not of Night, nor of a dark one." (1 Thess. 5:5 RBT)
LITV Translation:
He said to them, Come and see. They went and saw where He stayed, and they remained with Him that day. And the hour was about the tenth.
ESV Translation:
He said to them, “Come and you will see.” So they came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

Footnotes

59

About 4pm. Two hours before sunset, the night. The time is not provided to us so that we could debate and hypothesize how it should mean 10am or why it was mentioned at all as commentators have done for ages. It seems to reference “the day of that one” which is a text that correlates exactly with the Hebrew בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֗וּא. In the Day of That one or the Day of Himself, i.e. Genesis 15:18, Isaiah 7:20 “in the Day of Himself” etc.
