“Look at the two signs of night and day and the lessons they contain about God's lordship and wisdom. He made night a resting place and a covering: it envelops the world, movement settles, animals return home and birds to their nests, and souls recover from work and fatigue. After their rest, when they turn again towards their livelihoods, the Cleaver of daybreak brings the day, with morning light advancing like an army that scatters darkness and unveils the world. Creatures see again and resume their affairs, and birds leave their nests. What a return and renewal, pointing to God's power to bring about the greater resurrection!”
