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.

4611. Verses 27-29 And Jacob came to Isaac his father, to Mamre, Kiriath Arba, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned. And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years. And Isaac breathed his last, and died, and was gathered to his peoples, old and full of days. And Esau and Jacob his sons buried him.

'Jacob came to Isaac his father' means that at this point the Divine Rational was joined to the Divine Natural. 'To Mamre, Kiriath Arba' means its state. 'Which is Hebron' means the state when they were joined together. 'Where Abraham and Isaac sojourned' means Divine life together with it. 'And the days of Isaac were' means the state of the Divine Rational at this point. 'A hundred and eighty years' means the nature of this state. 'And Isaac breathed his last, and died' means an awakening within the Divine Natural. 'And was gathered to his peoples' means that it was now among the things which belonged to the Divine Natural. 'Old and full of days' means newness of life. 'And Esau and Jacob his sons buried him' means that it rose again within the good of the Natural and within the good of truth in the Natural.
