Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
one day—a day altogether unique, different from all others [MAURER]. Compare "one," that is, unique (Song of Solomon 6:9; Jeremiah 30:7). Not as HENDERSON explains, "One continuous day, without night" (Revelation 22:5; Revelation 21:25); the millennial period (Revelation 20:3-7).
known to . . . Lord—This truth restrains man's curiosity and teaches us to wait the Lord's own time (Matthew 24:36).
not day, nor night—answering to "not . . . clear nor . . . dark" (Zechariah 14:6); not altogether daylight, yet not the darkness of night.
at evening . . . shall be light—Towards the close of this twilight-like time of calamity, "light" shall spring up (Psalms 97:11; Psalms 112:4; Isaiah 30:26; Isaiah 60:19-20).
