'Daylight' in the Bible
Then Jacob said, “Look, it is still broad daylight. It’s not time for the animals to be gathered. Water the flock, then go out and let them graze.”
The Lord said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of the people and execute them in broad daylight before the Lord so that His burning anger may turn away from Israel.”
You acted in secret, but I will do this before all Israel and in broad daylight.’”
May its morning stars grow dark.May it wait for daylight but have none;may it not see the breaking of dawn.
Or why was I not hidden like a miscarried child,like infants who never see daylight?
I will set fire to Egypt;Pelusium will writhe in anguish,Thebes will be breached,and Memphis will face foes in broad daylight.
Therefore, it will be night for you—without visions;it will grow dark for you—without divination.The sun will set on these prophets,and the daylight will turn black over them.
