For the ancient Israelites, a day began at sunset, following the creation narrative in Genesis, which states, "And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day." This understanding aligns with the Jewish tradition of counting days from evening to evening, meaning that the Sabbath and other festivals also commence at sunset. Thus, their daily cycle was anchored in the rhythm of natural light and darkness.
