Iṇṇ'as Laban: «Adi wər itəwəggu daɣ-na əzəzləf ən tamaḍrayt dat tamaqqart.
3837. 'So it was in the morning' means enlightenment in that state. This is clear from the meaning of 'the morning' as enlightenment, dealt with in 3458, 3723. And since every period of time means a state, 2625, 2788, 2837, 3356, the earliest period of the day or the morning accordingly means the enlightenment belonging to that state, that is, in that state. The enlightenment has regard to that which follows shortly, that is to say, his acknowledgement that it was a joining merely to external truth.
3458. 'And in the morning they rose up early' means a state of enlightenment. This is clear from the meaning of 'the morning' and 'rising up early' as a state of enlightenment. For by 'the morning' and 'the dawn' in the highest sense is meant the Lord, and in the internal sense the celestial element of His love, and also from this the state of peace, see 2333, 2405, 2540, 2780. And 'rising up' means in the internal sense a raising up, 2401, 2785, 2912, 2927, 3171. From these meanings it is evident that 'in the morning he rose up early' means a state of enlightenment.
