morning: the early part of the day, from first light through the hours just after sunrise.
This is the ordinary Hebrew word for morning, and it stays one word throughout the Bible. It covers the whole front edge of the day: the first light of dawn, sunrise itself, and the early hours that follow, with no fixed clock boundary. When a story says something happened "in the morning," this is almost always the word behind it.
Morning is the time when things begin and when things become clear. People rise early in the morning to set out, to worship, to bury the dead, or to act on a decision made the night before, and Bible writers lean on that rhythm constantly. Because daylight reveals what darkness hid, morning also carries a quiet sense of relief and fresh sight: trouble that loomed in the night looks different once the sun is up.
The word is half of two familiar pairings. With "evening" it frames a full day ("there was evening and there was morning"), and the two together can simply mean "all the time, around the clock." Repeated or in its rare plural it gives the idea of "morning after morning," that is, every single day without fail, which is how the Bible speaks of mercies and duties that never run out.
