§ 15 For the time of the day wherein the Lamb was to be slain, it is designed to be [Greek or Hebrew] between the two evenings of the 14 day, of the first month. Some of the Jews, as Kimchi, make these two evenings to be, the first declining of the Sun, which began the evening or afternoon, and the setting of the Sun which closeth it, answering the ancient division of the day, into morning and evening; so that it might be done by this rule, in any time of the afternoon, though it always followed the evening Sacrifice, at the 9th hour, or 3 of the clock. Others, as Aben-Ezra, make the first evening to be the setting of the Sun, the other the departure of all light. And the Jews have a distinction of the day, wherein they call this space of it [Greek or Hebrew] between the two evenings, [Greek or Hebrew] between the two Suns. So they express themselves in Talmud. Hieros. Berach. cap. 1. [Greek or Hebrew] All the space of time wherein the face of the East is red, is called day; when it begins to wax pale, it is called between the Suns; (the same with between the evenings) and when it waxeth black, the upper Firmament being like the lower, it is night.
