A day is the amount of time that passes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the play follows strict dramatic rules in terms of action, place and time. It therefore limits all onstage action to one location. It also requires that action to take place within a day.

Why does Jocasta's story upset Oedipus in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That her husband dies at the very place Oedipus kills someone is what upsets Oedipus about Jocasta's story of Laius' death in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Queen Jocasta identifies her husband's place of death as the spot where the roads from Daulia, Delphi and Thebes meet in the land of Phocis. The meeting-place is distinct and known to Oedipus, who passes through that intersection on the way from Delphi to Thebes about the time that Laius passes from Thebes to Creon. Additionally, Jocasta's description of her husband fits Oedipus' memory of one of the four people he kills there.
