John 1:39
| 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. |
