Revelation 8:1-2

"And when he opened the seventh seal, a silence occurred in heaven for about a half hour. And I saw the seven angels that stand before God, and seven trumpets were given them."


John 1:3-5

"All things came into existence through him, and apart from him not even one thing came into existence.
What has come into existence by means of him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light is shining in the darkness, but the darkness has not overpowered it".

Bill, it was evidently time for some of the prayers of God's worshippers on the earth to be introduced. In the first century C.E., the Jews used the count of 12 hours to the day (daylight hours), starting with sunrise (6 A.M.), and ending at around 6 P.M. Then they had the Roman custom of 4 night watches.
