Midweek Open Thread

Christmas Eve is seen by most as the entire day before Christmas. When Christianity had its beginnings, it used the Jewish concepts for the day. Instead of beginning at midnight, or at sunrise, religious days began at sundown during the previous day. The night portion of the day came before the lighted portion of the day.  Thus, at sundown today, it would be “Christmas Evening.” Enjoy your Holiday weekend!
