Exegesis
The idiom bein haarbayim {בֵּין הָעַרְבָּיִם | bēn ha-ʿar-ba-yīm} signals the period between sunset and full darkness. Hebrew typically positions temporal expressions at the beginning of a clause, whereas English often relocates them; the English renderings preserve the sequence while adjusting word order for readability.
In context — Leviticus 23:5
In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, is the Passover to the LORD .
