The sunset theory asserts that a day begins at sunset, specifically when the sun goes down, and ends at sunset the following day. Since the moment of sunset marks the start of the day, night precedes day.

In this verse, it is argued that “since evening appears before morning, the Bible indicates that the start of the day is in the evening.” However, the Bible states, “And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.” This implies that the end of the first day is marked by morning. If, according to their claim, the day begins at sunset, a contradiction arises: the day would consist of only 12 hours from evening to morning, eliminating the remaining 12 hours of daylight. This error occurs because they overlook the fact that [[God]] created light before the evening, which accounts for the existence of daytime prior to the evening. | In this verse, it is argued that “since evening appears before morning, the Bible indicates that the start of the day is in the evening.” However, the Bible states, “And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.” This implies that the end of the first day is marked by morning.

The sunrise theory posits that a day begins at sunrise, meaning it starts in the morning and ends the following morning. Since the rising of the sun marks the start of the day, daytime occurs first, followed by nighttime. The next morning serves as both the conclusion of the previous day and the starting point of a new day, establishing the basis for date changes. The Bible defines dates based on sunrise. | The sunrise theory posits that a day begins at sunrise, meaning it starts in the morning and ends the following morning.
