>>> Part 1 of 3...
Brother Jerry, this is in no way trying to skirt around answering
your six parter post on when the true day of Yahweh starts, but
would like for you to take a look at the previous post of Biblical
background for you to consider which now has additional research
information from The Word which should help you to see exactly
when Yahweh's and our day truly starts and in the event that you
are still unable to see the plain Scriptural truth, then your six
parter post will be answered point for point as it is being saved
to file for just such event for we are admonished to always be
ready to give an answer to every man a reason for the hope that
is in us with meekness and fear, right?  So here it tiz again...
                           TIME
 The Natural Day was from sun-rise to sun-set.
 The Natural Night was from sun-set to sun-rise.
 The Civil Day was from sun-set one evening to sun-set the next;
 for "the Evening and the Morning were the first day."
                        NIGHT (Ancient)
 First Watch from sunset to 10 p.m. - La 2:19
 Middle Watch from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. - Jud 7:19
 Morning Watch from 2 a.m. to sunrise - Ex 14:24
                        NIGHT (New Testament)
 First Watch, evening, 6 to 9 p.m.
 Second Watch, midnight, 9 to 12 p.m.
 Third Watch, cock-crow, 12 to 3 a.m.
 Fourth Watch, morning, 3 to 6 a.m.
                          DAY (Ancient)
 Morning till about 10 a.m.
 Heat of day till about 2 p.m.
 Cool of day till about 6 p.m.
                        DAY (New Testament)
 Third hour, 6 to 9 a.m.
 Sixth hour, 9 to 12 midday.
 Ninth hour, 12 to 3 p.m.
 Twelfth hour, 3 to 6 p.m.
 To start at the beginning, we see in Ge 1:5 that He called the 
 light Day, and the darkness He called Night and the evening and 
 the morning were the "first day" (24 hour period)!
 Now, if we may note here Joh 11:9 "Are there not twelve hours
 in the day?  If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not,
 because he seeth the light of this world."
 So then, if one were to start the day in accordance with the
 doctrines and commandments of men, would he not be in darkness
 during the latter six hours of the day?
 Also do we not clearly see from Ps 55:17 and Da 6:10 that a day
 contains three parts, which are morning, noon and evening, so
 how in Heaven's Name can anyone get those three parts our of
 day that starts at noon as per the doctrines and commandments
 of men?
 Also note the parable of the vineyard (Mt 20:1-16) which 
 clearly names the working hours of a day which are the third, 
 sixth, ninth and eleventh hours!  And if this be so, then those 
 laborers would have been working in the vineyard during five 
 hours of darkness and if so, then what were they using for 
 light to see by to work, candles or torches?
 It may also be noted here that the sixth hour can be either 
 midnight or noon which is clearly proven by Joh 19:14 when 
 Pilate brought Yahshua out to the people and said "Behold your 
 King." and eventually delivered Him up to be crucified which 
 was done at the third hour, for no other time could possibly be 
 correct going by the doctrines and commandments of men!
 And finally it is noteworthy that Hebrew people did not divide 
 the period of daylight into regular hourly periods, whereas 
 nighttime was divided into three watches (Ex 14:24; Jud 7:19).  
 The beginning of a "day" is sometimes said to be dusk (Es  
 4:16) and sometimes dawn (De 28:66-67).
