'Night' in the Bible

This law scroll must not leave your lips! You must memorize it day and night so you can carefully obey all that is written in it. Then you will prosper and be successful.

Joshua son of Nun sent two spies out from Shittim secretly and instructed them: "Find out what you can about the land, especially Jericho." They stopped at the house of a prostitute named Rahab and spent the night there.

When it was time to shut the city gate for the night, the men left. I don't know where they were heading. Chase after them quickly, for you have time to catch them!"

So Joshua made sure they marched the ark of the Lord around the city one time. Then they went back to the camp and spent the night there.

Joshua and the whole army marched against Ai. Joshua selected thirty thousand brave warriors and sent them out at night.

Joshua sent them away and they went to their hiding place west of Ai, between Bethel and Ai. Joshua spent that night with the army.

The army was in position -- the main army north of the city and the rear guard west of the city. That night Joshua went into the middle of the valley.

Joshua attacked them by surprise after marching all night from Gilgal.
