Thesis 92.

Nor can this Evening, be fairly interpreted of the former [ 92] even before Sun set, as taking in that also; for this evening is to begin at the evening of the ninth day, verse 32. which even∣ing of the ninth day is not the evening of that day about two or three of the clock, (for the tenth day onely is called the day of Atonement, verse 27. and therefore part of the ninth day is no part of the Atonement day) but as Iunius well expounds it, at the evening of the ninth day,* 1.1 puta qua nonus dies definit, at that nick of time, which is the communis terminus of the end of the ninth day and beginning of the tenth, you shall then cele∣brate your Sabbath: which curious exactnesse of the Lord, is partly to expresse his zeal for the full and plenary observation of the day, that he may not lose a moments time of honour, as also to shew what care they should have of holding out from the first point to the last period of that Sabbath.
