 
Day & Night Questions
Elesha YisraEl has formulated these 21 questions to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that a day starts in the morning, and ends in the evening; and evening is a part of a day, and not the beginning of a new day. He believes that if any serious student of the Scriptures attempts to honestly answer these questions that he would come to the same undeniable conclusion that day and night are totally the opposite of one another, and there two distinctly different times altogether. Any questions that you might have regarding this literature, you may call Elesha YisraEl directly at (513) 226-7110.
1. According to Gen. 1:14, what did YAH, Our Creator, give us to determine our days and our years.
(Q) Lights or darkness (nights)?
(A) - Lights. Gen. 1:14, notice not darkness (nights), but "lights".
2. If a day starts in the evening when it becomes dark, then when does a night begin?
(A) - They do not both start simultaneously, if so, they would be the same. A day starts when it becomes light Judges 16:2, and a night starts when it becomes dark (Psalm 104:20). They are totally the opposite of one another. Gen. 8:22.
3. At 12:00 midnight, is that the middle of the night or the middle of the day?
(A) - It is the middle of the night, because the middle of the day comes after the morning and before the evening. I Kings 18:26-29.
4. When the Holy Scriptures speak about the break of day, or the dawning of the day,in 2 Samuel 2:32, Judges 19:25 and Job 7:4;
(Q) Is this speaking about the beginning of a day, or the ending of a day?
(A) - It is speaking about the beginning of a day.
5. Was the sun made to rule over the day or was it made to rule over the night?
(A) Gen. 1:14-18. The days, not the nights are darkness.
(Q) - If the sun was made to rule over the day, then how can a day begin at night when the sun is not ruling?
(A) - Totally impossible. Psalm 136:7-9.
6.The Creator said many times throughout the Scriptures, (Gen. 1:3-4 and Gen. 1:14-18) that He divided the day from the night or the light from darkness.
(Q) - When did He put them back together?
(A) - Never! Ecclesiastes 3:14 and Isa. 40:8.
7. Is it possible for my son to remain at your house all day without spending the
night?
(A) - Yes, because when a day ends, the night begins. Psalm 104:20.
8.In Numbers 11:32, it says that the Children of YisraEl gathered the quails all that day, and all that night, and all the next day.
(Q) - How many days and how many nights did they gather quails?
(A) - Two days and one night, (but if a day begins at night then they would have gathered quails three days and three nights).
9. According to Lev. 8:35, Aaron and his sons were to remain at the door of the Tabernacle, day and night, seven days.
(Q) How many nights did they remain?
(A) - Six nights.
10. In Lev. 7:15, it says, “the flesh of the sacrifice of His peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.”
(Q) Does the word “morning”, in this verse indicate the morning that is connected to the previous evening, or the morning that is connected to a new day?
(A) - New day. Num. 28:3-4, this verse also proves the evening is part of the previous day, not the beginning of a new day.
11. In Exodus 18:13 it states, “And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening.”
(Q) When does morrow begin; in the evening, night or in the morning?
(A) Morning, as all of the Scriptures clearly indicates. I have never found a Scripture where the morrow starts in the evening or the night.
12. According to Exodus 16:22-25, when does the Rest of the Holy Sabbath unto YAH begin, in the night, evening or in the morning?
(A)Morning or morrow, as all new days begin.
13. If a night is considered a day, then what did YAH mean when He said that He
caused it to rain forty days and forty nights?
(A) - A night is not considered a day. Psalm 104:20.
14. If a day starts when it becomes dark, then why is darkness always pertained to
as night, and never pertained to as day? (Psalm 104:20); except when it is
speaking about the "Day of YAH's Wrath."?
(A) A day does not start when it becomes dark, because YAH totally separated the light from the darkness. Gen. 1:18.
15.In Gen. 1:5, does the word day mean light or does it mean light and darkness?
(A) The word day means light only. Gen. 1:3-4.
16. Gen. 8:22 reads, "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease." The Most High gives us four different times and conditions.
(Q) Are these times and conditions the same, or are they totally the opposite of one another?
(A) Totally the opposite of one another.
17.In Job 17:8-12, why is it that the upright men, the innocent men, and the righteous men and everyone who has clean hands has stirred up themselves against the hypocrites?
(Q-a) Why is it that the people who changed night into day are referred to as hypocrites?
(A) Because the hypocrites are saying that YAH, Our Creator told a lie, when He said He separated the day from the night. Gen. 1:14-18.
(Q-b) If a day always started at night, then how could anyone change the night into day?
(A) Totally impossible, but by the wicked trying to do so, it could possibly bring about the total destruction of the House of YisraEl. Jer. 33:19-21.
18. According to the Words of The Most High, what is the difference between a day and a night? (Give Scriptures please).
(A) Day equals light, and darkness equals night. Jer. 31:35 and Psalm 136:7-9.
19.In Jer. 33:19-21, YAH speaks about the evil that He would bring upon the house of David and kingdom of YisraEl, if they broke His covenants that there should not be day or night in their season (Psalm 22:2).
(Q) What is the season of the day, and what is the season of the night?
(A) The sun is the season of the day, and the moon is the season of the night Jer. 31:35.
20.Outside of the way that many of you might interpret Genesis 1st Chapter, is there anywhere else in the Holy Scriptures that says that evening and morning are a day?
(A) No! Because, it is not, neither is Genesis 1st Chapter saying that.
21.If the celebration of our Sabbath days and our new moons (Isa. 66:23) begins in the evening when the sun is going down, why would Our Creator state that all nations shall praise His Name and worship Him from the "rising of the sun until the going down of the same (sun)?"
(A) If the Sabbath started in the evening, as many of our people believe, then these verses would make no sense whatsoever. Malachi 1:11 reads, "For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same, My Name shall be Great among the Gentiles, and in every place incense shall be offered unto My name, and a pure offering: for My Name shall be Great among the heathen, saith YAH of Hosts." Psalm 113:3 and Psalm 50:1.
