7987. 'Even on this same day it was' means that it was at that very time. This is clear from the meaning of 'day' as state, dealt with in 23, 487, 488, 493, 2788, 3462, 3785, 4850, 5672, 5962, 7680. 'On this same day' consequently means in that state, and so at that very time, that is to say, when the Lord's Coming took place, meant by 'at the end of the four hundred and thirty years', and the deliverance of those belonging to the spiritual Church, meant by 'all the hosts of Jehovah went out of the land of Egypt'.
