Any event or activity that takes in any part of a day or night constitutes an event or activity for that day or night. It is not required to establish a particular time (by hours) period other than signifying daylight or dark.
I am not at all sure what the other point(s) may be. However, this discussion is hijacking the thread.
Off for now.

This is exactly what I have found as well. ANY TIME during the day constitutes one day to be counted, whether at the start of a day or near the end. Bro. Bowman KNOWS this stuff as he is heavily in Messianic Judaism, or similar. Thanks, bro.!
