Arcana Coelestia # 3056
3056. 'At evening time' means a more obscure state at that time. This is clear from the meaning of 'time' as state, dealt with in 2625, 2788, 2837, and from the meaning of 'evening' as obscurity. For in the Word evening means the state which precedes the final period of a declining Church, the period called night, or else it means the initial state of a rising Church, the state called morning, see 2323. In both cases evening means that which is obscure, but here it is the obscurity which precedes the morning.
