Like the word ‘day’, the word ‘hour’ is used in the Bible both specifically and generally. It may refer to a measured length of time or to an occasion or period (Matthew 20:9; Matthew 20:12; Matthew 24:44; Matthew 26:40; Matthew 26:45; Luke 22:53; John 4:21; John 5:28; John 7:30; John 12:27; for details see DAY; TIME).
