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.

2172. That 'Abraham' here is the Lord in that state as regards good is clear from the representation of 'Abraham'. Abraham represents the Lord in the human when he is speaking to Jehovah, as is the case here, and also previously in 1989, where he represented the Lord in that state and at that time of life, for that too was an occasion when He spoke to Jehovah. In other places 'Abraham' represents the Lord's Divine Good and 'Sarah' Divine Truth, and therefore he represents His rational good.
