Studie

       

10 And his uncle shall carry him, and he who burns· him ·up, to bring·​·out the bones from the house; and he shall say unto him that is by the flanks of the house, Is there yet any with thee? And he shall say, None. And he shall say, Keep·​·silent; for we may not make·​·mention of the name of Jehovah.

Day

  
Morning Sunshine, by Károly Ferenczy

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.
