It conveys the idea of the sun sinking below the horizon, marking the transition from day to night. This term is often used metaphorically to indicate the end of a period or the closing of an era.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient times, the setting of the sun was a significant daily event, marking the end of the workday and the beginning of rest. The Jewish day began at sunset, so the setting of the sun was also the start of a new day. This cultural understanding is reflected in various biblical passages where the setting of the sun signifies the end of certain activities or the beginning of new ones.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a form of duó (to sink)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to enter, to sink into<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>set (1), setting (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1416: δύνω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">δύνω</span></span>, <span class="greek2">δύω</span>; 2 aorist <span class="greek2">ἔδυν</span>; 1 aorist (in Greek writings transitively) <span class="greek2">ἐδυσα</span> (<a href="/interlinear/mark/1-32.htm">Mark 1:32</a> <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span>), cf.
