That out of the pre∣misses of Night and Day, so was the Evening mixed of them both; so was the morning also compounded of both, to wit of Night and Light: this I say is but words; here is no proofe for such an interpretation. Iunius Translation is best and most cleare, and rationall, viz. So was the Even∣ing and the Morning of the first day: for as hath bin said the whole time of Night is never called by the name of Morning;
let any man shew the leaft Tittle in any Scripture it, and I will yeeld to them in this cause.
