NIGHT
It is used symbolically of:
(a) Death, a time when “no one can work” (John 9:4).
(b) The moral darkness of the world, in which men sleep and are drunk (1 Thes. 5:7).
(c) The period of Christ’s rejection, which is now advanced, “and the day is at hand” (Rom. 13:12).
There will be no night of moral or spiritual darkness in the heavenly Jerusalem (Rev. 21:25; 22:5).
