And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth.”

You forget that it says then came evening and the morning, the first day
You forget that it says then came evening and the morning, the first day
I didn't forget anything. There was darkness (evening) before God created light (morning).
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

amen exactly what I was getting at he only withdrew because of he hadn’t hidden himself from us we would have been destroyed in his presence so he set a wall between God and man to protect us and give us time to repent and rid ourselves of sin so we don’t die in his presence he’s done everything for us even casting us out of Eden and later withdrawing and looking away from our sinfulness

Yea I suppose it should be a separate thread
When our Lord died for us it was at the end of the fifthe day. It was before sunset, so the third day would be what is called Monday afternoon.
I do not think this is very important to those who are content with the way days are counted since the non-believers changed our calendar to the solar calendar, but it is definitely thoughtworthy.
