DANIEL 8:26A THE EVENING AND THE MORNING PART I

Updated: Dec 26, 2022

CHAPTER 26 A


 

During this discourse, we will look at the first phrase of Daniel 8:26 and will discover what the Evening and the Morning of Daniel 8:26 mean. We will see that regarding the Sanctuary message of Daniel 8, the Evening and the Morning is Christ’s redemptive work of perfect trust in His Father’s provisional Will.

Daniel 8:26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Daniel-Chapter-8/

Please note that two different words were translated from Hebrew as “vision” in Daniel 8:26. But these two different Hebrew words refer to two different things. You can review that in our Bible Study discussion regarding Daniel 8:15 in which both these different words for vision are first used together. Below I have shared from the Strong’s Concordance the different Hebrew words translated vision being numbered H4758 and H2377.

And the vision H4758 of the evening H6153 and the morning H1242 which was told H559 is true: H571 wherefore shut thou up H5640 the vision; H2377 for it shall be for many H7227 days. H3117

https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/dan/8/26/ss1/s_858001

The first Hebrew word for vision is mareh H4758 meaning appearance.

מַרְאֶה marʼeh, mar-eh'; from H7200; a view (the act of seeing); also an appearance (the thing seen), whether (real) a shape (especially if handsome, comeliness; often plural the looks), or (mental) a vision:—× apparently, appearance(-reth), × as soon as beautiful(-ly), countenance, fair, favoured, form, goodly, to look (up) on (to), look(-eth), pattern, to see, seem, sight, visage, vision. https://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/Lexicon/Lexicon.cfm?strongs=H4758&t=KJV

Daniel 8:26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Daniel-Chapter-8/

For the sake of simplicity we will use the translation, “appearance”. We saw this first in Daniel 8:15 regarding the “appearance of the Mighty man” who we found out was Michael or Christ.


 
Daniel 8:15 And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Daniel-Chapter-8/

The second Hebrew word used for vision in Daniel 8:26 is chazown H2377 meaning revelation.

חָזוֹן châzôwn, khaw-zone'; from H2372; a sight (mentally), i.e. a dream, revelation, or oracle:—vision.https://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/Lexicon/Lexicon.cfm?strongs=H2377&t=KJV

Daniel 8:26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Daniel-Chapter-8/


 
Daniel 8:15 And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision (h2377), and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Daniel-Chapter-8/

Reviewing Daniel 8:15 we found that as an answer to the meaning of the 2300-day prophecy (vision H2377) of Daniel 8:1-14, Daniel was given the appearance of a Mighty Man (vision 4758). Our study concluded that the Mighty Man was the Captain of the Lord’s Host, The Lord of Lords, Michael the Archangel, and Messiah the Christ, the Great Prince of God’s People. Our study showed us that His purpose is to be the Captain of our lives, to fight our battles with sin for us and to resurrect us in the last day. But Daniel 8:26 brings out a new character quality regarding the Mighty Man Appearance that is very important for our salvation. It is His enduring, continual, daily provision! Let us look at it in the context of Daniel 8.

In review, the context of Daniel 8 has several features. The setting is the battle between the mighty powers of good and evil in this world. The key players are Christ and His people through the ages from the time of Medo-Persia rule forward as well as Satan and his agents during the same prophetic time. The object of focus is the typical earthly sanctuary rebuilt by the Israelites during the time of the Medes and Persians and the antitypical true sanctuary following the cross which is composed of Christ and His people. The sanctuary is also a blueprint of the government or kingdom of God and specifically the plan of salvation as seen in its symbolism. The Daniel 8 picture of the great controversy between Christ and Satan is also seen in the sacrificial symbolism of the Day of Atonement Ram/Lamb of God (Christ) which taketh away the sin of the world as well as the he-goat/scapegoat (Satan). The key to understanding all of this is to understand the work of the Mighty Man, Jesus Christ, Who came to restore our communion/relationship with God. We call this His atonement. Finally, regarding Daniel 8:26 how does this “the evening and the morning” fit into the above?

Daniel 8:26And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Daniel-Chapter-8/

The words “the evening and the morning” used in this order take us right back to creation week. We must look at the original government or order of God on this earth to understand it.


 
Genesis 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Genesis-Chapter-1/

The words evening and morning simply denoted a day. It started in the evening and continued in the morning. At even it all started again. The phrase “and the evening and the morning were” is repeated for the first six days of the creation account in Genesis 1.


 
Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. 1

6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.

7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. 2

9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day. 3

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. 4

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. 5

24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. 6 https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Genesis-Chapter-1/

There were six wonderful days of Creator provision. Light, firmament, land with food, the sun and moon and stars, living creatures of the water and sky, and finally living creatures of the land including man. Did you ever stop to think that spiritually, Christ is the Light of the World; He is the Everlasting Spirit or Breath; He is the Bread of Life; He is the Sun of Righteousness, the Morning Star, He is the Dove of Peace and the Flying Eagle; He made Himself one of the fish in this great sea of humanity. He is the the Lamb of God, the Lion of Judah; He is God in human flesh! He is the great Provision of Heaven.

The next time we see the evening and morning is during the wilderness wandering of Israel. Here we begin to understand the evening and the morning as the provision of God and fulfilled spiritually in Christ Himself! He is the Manna.


 
Exodus 16:4 Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.
 
12 I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God.

13 And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.

14 And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-16/


 
John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

48 I am that bread of life.

49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/John-Chapter-6/

Matthew 26:26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Matthew-Chapter-26/


 
The next time we are introduced to the evening and the morning is the provision of sanctuary. Here the lesson is expounded that the evening and the morning through the symbols is a continual, always, abiding, dwelling, remaining, daily provision of Christ Himself. Below I have shared both the sanctuary symbolic ordinances as well as the fulfilment of those ordinances in Christ.


 
Exodus 27:20 And thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamp to burn always.

21 In the tabernacle of the congregation without the vail, which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall order it from evening to morning before the LORD: it shall be a statute for ever unto their generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-27/


 
Isaiah 60:19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.

20 Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Isaiah-Chapter-60/


 
Exodus 29:36 And thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a sin offering for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse the altar, when thou hast made an atonement for it, and thou shalt anoint it, to sanctify it. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-29/


 
Hebrews 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:

14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Hebrews-Chapter-9/


 
Exodus 29:38 Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar; two lambs of the first year day by day continually.

39 The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and the other lamb thou shalt offer at even:

40 And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering.

41 And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the morning, and according to the drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

42 This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD: where I will meet you, to speak there unto thee.

43 And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by my glory.

44 And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office.

45 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.

46 And they shall know that I am the LORD their God, that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them: I am the LORD their God. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-29/


 
Hebrews 10:6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:

12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

Exodus 25:30 And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-25/

Numbers 4:7 And upon the table of shewbread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put thereon the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers to cover withal: and the continual bread shall be thereon: https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Numbers-Chapter-4/


 
1 Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/1-Peter-Chapter-1/


 
Matthew 6:11 Give us this day our daily bread. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Matthew-Chapter-6/

Exodus 30:1 And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it.

6 And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.

7 And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.

8 And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-30/


 
Malachi 1:11 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 the LORD of hosts. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Malachi-Chapter-1/#11

Ephesians 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Ephesians-Chapter-5/


 
Jeremiah 31:3 The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Jeremiah-Chapter-31/


 
1 Chronicles 16:37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required:

40 To offer burnt offerings unto the LORD upon the altar of the burnt offering continually morning and evening, and to do according to all that is written in the law of the LORD, which he commanded Israel; https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/1-Chronicles-Chapter-16/


 
Hebrews 10:11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Hebrews-Chapter-10/


 
Hebrews 7:15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.

25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.

28 For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Hebrews-Chapter-7/

Did you noticed that in each of the above lesson books (that of creation week, that of manna, that of the sanctuary) the provision is provided continually, evening and morning, daily, forever, endlessly, perpetually, remaining, abiding. Christ is literally currently, the Evening and Morning or Daily Provision. He is our Daily Bread. He is our Continual ever burning Light. He is our Incense of Love everlasting. He is our Continual Burnt Offering offered once forever. He is our Continual Sin Offering offered once forever. He is our High Priest who ever liveth to make intercession for us. He is our Daily, Evening and the Morning provision!

You should be asking yourself this question by now, for in each of the examples of the Evening and the Morning there follows attached the Sabbath. In every case above (creation, manna, the gift of His Son) God set aside a day just to remember it all!

Genesis 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.

2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Genesis-Chapter-2/


 
Exodus 16:22 And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.

23 And he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to day, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.

24 And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm therein.

25 And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath unto the LORD: to day ye shall not find it in the field.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-16/


 
Luke 23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Luke-Chapter-23/


 
Genesis 22:7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?

8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Genesis-Chapter-22/


 
John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.....

41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.

42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/John-Chapter-19/

And so the vision (H4758) of the Evening and the Morning is all about the appearance of the Continual Provision to us of our Mighty Man, Our Creator and Redeemer!

You would think a day of rest for God meant the provision would be rested also. But no, the provisions given the first 6 days never stopped but were rather sustained by God in the miracle Holy Day memorial of an Evening and Morning of Rest! In the example of the work of creation, God rested from His work of creating, however the light, air, food, water, day and night, and life never ceased in provision. In the example of the manna, the people rested from their work of gathering and preparing manna and by obedience in rest showed their trust in God regarding His continual provision or sustenance of the manna during the Sabbath. In the work of salvation, Christ after He finished fulfilling the gift of His life for us rested His very breath in God’s hands waiting resurrection morning for His Father to call Him back to life.

Every week, when we partake of the Sabbath or Seventh Day Rest we are partaking in the commemoration of His creative works, His redemptive works and daily sustenance. Keeping the Sabbath or Seventh Day Rest is a symbol of faith or trust and obedience in His sustenance or continual provision not just for this life but for life evening and morning for eternity. Thank you, Father in Heaven, for being God, for creating, redeeming, and sustaining your children!

Hebrews 4:1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

3 For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

5 And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.

6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:

7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.

9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.

11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Hebrews-Chapter-4/

Christ is the greatest example of this perfect Rest or trust in God. That is why it is called His Rest or the Lord’s Day.


 
John 6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.....

38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/John-Chapter-6/


 
Hebrews 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Hebrews-Chapter-10/


 
Matthew 26:39 And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Matthew-Chapter-26/


 
Psalms 40:6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.

7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Psalms-Chapter-40/

And in the heart of the Will or Law of God in the 4th commandment is the Day of the Lord or Sabbath Rest.


 
Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-Chapter-20/

Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath. https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Mark-Chapter-2/

In summary, the Evening and the Morning as it relates to Daniel 8 regarding the sanctuary is the Provisional Redemptive Work of Christ which was finished on the cross. As stated previously, it is the “appearance of the Mighty Man” vision. “The vision of the Evening and the Morning which was told is true”…. Jesus has come to save us from our sins, to be our substitute and surety. He is our consecrated High Priest. We can go to Him in faith, repent, and know that He will intercede for us always, continually, forever, without end! We can put our faith in Him, Mighty Redeemer, and Friend!


 
John 6:32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.

33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/John-Chapter-6/
 

Friends, it is very important we understand this because as always Satan will fight against it. He specifically fights against it when he through the Lamb-like beast of Revelation 13 convinces the world to worship the image of the beast of Revelation 13. Satan, who has always wanted to be God, wants to be worshipped as God is worshipped.


 
Revelation 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Worship of this image is not based on perfect trust in the provision of God, but rather on fear of loss of life or belief in a lie. This form of worship takes away the continual provision of God. Remember that God sends the rain on the just and the unjust. This false system of worship will be set up by a false god.


 
Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
