In the ancient Near Eastern context, the day was often considered to begin at sunset, marking the transition from one day to the next. This understanding is rooted in the creation account in Genesis, where it is stated, "And there was evening, and there was morning&#8212;the first day" (<a href="/genesis/1-5.htm">Genesis 1:5</a>). This pattern of evening preceding morning is a recurring theme in the biblical narrative.<br><br><b>Biblical Observances and Sunset</b><br><br>Sunset plays a crucial role in the observance of the Sabbath and other Jewish festivals. According to Levitical law, the Sabbath begins at sunset on Friday and ends at sunset on Saturday. <a href="/leviticus/23-32.htm">Leviticus 23:32</a> states, "From evening to evening, you shall keep your Sabbath" . This command underscores the importance of sunset as a marker for sacred time, setting apart the Sabbath as a day of rest and worship.<br><br>Similarly, the Day of Atonement, or Yom Kippur, is observed from sunset to sunset, emphasizing the solemnity and sacredness of this holy day. The timing of these observances highlights the biblical principle of rest and reflection beginning with the cessation of daily labor at sunset.<br><br><b>Symbolism of Sunset</b><br><br>Sunset in the Bible often symbolizes the end of a period or the completion of a task. It can represent the close of a day, a life, or an era. In <a href="/psalms/104-19.htm">Psalm 104:19</a>, the psalmist notes, "He made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows when to set" , illustrating the divine order and rhythm established by God in creation.<br><br>The imagery of sunset is also used metaphorically to describe the brevity and transience of life. In <a href="/ecclesiastes/1-5.htm">Ecclesiastes 1:5</a>, it is written, "The sun rises and the sun sets; it hurries back to where it rises" , conveying the cyclical nature of life and the inevitability of its end. This serves as a reminder of human mortality and the importance of living a life aligned with God's will.<br><br><b>Sunset in the New Testament</b><br><br>In the New Testament, sunset marks significant moments in the life and ministry of Jesus. For instance, in <a href="/mark/1-32.htm">Mark 1:32</a>, it is recorded, "That evening, after sunset, people brought to Jesus all who were sick and demon-possessed" . This passage highlights the compassion and healing power of Jesus, as people sought Him out at the end of the day, bringing their burdens and ailments to Him.<br><br>Furthermore, the timing of events around sunset underscores the fulfillment of prophecy and the unfolding of God's redemptive plan. The crucifixion of Jesus took place on the day of Preparation, and His body was laid in the tomb before sunset, in accordance with Jewish burial customs (<a href="/mark/15-42.htm">Mark 15:42-46</a>).<br><br><b>Practical Implications</b><br><br>For believers, sunset can serve as a daily reminder of God's faithfulness and the opportunity for reflection and renewal. As the day comes to a close, it is a time to pause, give thanks, and seek God's guidance for the coming day. The setting sun can inspire believers to trust in God's provision and to rest in His promises, knowing that His mercies are new every morning (<a href="/lamentations/3-22.htm">Lamentations 3:22-23</a>).<br><br>In summary, sunset in the Bible is rich with meaning, marking the transition of time, the observance of sacred days, and the unfolding of God's divine plan. It serves as a powerful symbol of completion, reflection, and hope in the life of faith.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(<I>n.</I>) Alt. of Sunsetting.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/2250.htm"><span class="l">2250. hemera -- day</span></a> <br><b>...</b> of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: hemera Phonetic Spelling: (hay-mer&#39;-ah)<br> Short Definition: a day Definition: a day, the period from sunrise to <b>sunset</b> <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">//strongsnumbers.com/greek2/2250.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 7k</font><p><a href="/greek/3317.htm"><span class="l">3317. mesonuktion -- at midnight</span></a> <br><b>...</b> mesonuktion Phonetic Spelling: (mes-on-ook&#39;-tee-on) Short Definition: midnight<br> Definition: midnight, the middle of the period between <b>sunset</b> and sunrise. <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">//strongsnumbers.com/greek2/3317.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 6k</font><p><a href="/greek/3600.htm"><span class="l">3600. odunao -- to cause or suffer pain</span></a> <br><b>...</b> personal expressed by great ().
