Arcana Coelestia #23
23. Nothing is more common in the Word than for the word 'day' to be used to mean the particular time at which events take place, as in Isaiah,
The day of Jehovah is near. Behold, the day of Jehovah comes. I will make heaven tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place, on the day of My fierce anger. Its time is close at hand, and its days will not be prolonged. Isaiah 13:6, 9, 13, 22.
And in the same prophet,
Her antiquity is in the days of antiquity. On that day Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, like the days of one king. Isaiah 23:7, 15.
Since 'day' stands for the particular time it also stands for the state associated with that particular time, as in Jeremiah, Woe to us, for the day has declined, for the shadows of evening have lengthened! Jeremiah 6:4
And in the same prophet,
If you break My covenant that is for the day and My covenant that is for the night, so that there is neither daytime nor night at their appointed time. Jeremiah 33:20, 25.
Also,
Renew our days as of old. Lamentations 5:21.

4520. 'I and my house' means as regards truth and good. This is clear from the representation of Jacob, to whom 'I' refers here, as the Church, in particular the Church as regards truth (as may be deduced from what has been shown concerning Jacob's representation in 3305, 3509, 3525, 3546, 3576, 3599, 3775, 4234, 4337; that is to say, he represents the Lord as regards Divine Natural Truth. For in representations when a person in the highest sense represents the Lord as regards the Divine Truth of His Natural, he also represents the Lord's kingdom as regards Divine Truth there, and consequently the Church as regards truth, because these correspond to each other; for all truth within His kingdom and Church is the Lord's); and from the meaning of 'a house' as the Church as regards good, dealt with in 2233, 2234, 3720.
