17
Maar den eerstgeborene, den zoon der gehate, zal hij kennen, gevende hem het dubbele deel van alles, wat bij hem zal worden gevonden; want hij is het beginsel zijner kracht, het recht der eerstgeboorte is het zijne.
Deuteronomium 21:17
Day
Like other descriptions of time in the Word, "a day" or a number of "days" describe a spiritual state rather than our natural concept of time. A spiritual "day" describes a state of mind or a state in our relationship with the Lord rather than a 12-hour or 24-hour span of natural time. "Day" describes a state in which we are turned toward the Lord, and are receiving light (which is truth) and heat (which is a desire for good) from the Lord.
