Ibid. From noon till eventide. See Ex. 12:6, Lev. 23:5, Num. 9:3, where the R.V. has “at even,” (margin) Hebrew “between the two evenings.” The LXX translates this in Ex. and Num. by πρὸς ἑσπέραν, but in Leviticus by ἀνάμεσον τῶν ἑσπερινῶν. “For this the traditional interpretation adopted by the Pharisees and Talmudists was that the ‘first’ evening was when the heat of the sun begins to decrease, about 3 P.M., and that the second evening began with sunset” (Driver on Ex. xii. 6), Philo’s interpretation is in accordance with another opinion quoted by Driver, “that the sacrifice if offered before noon was not valid.”
