Exegesis
The negative construction lo-yiheyeh or {לֹֽא-יִהְיֶ֣ה א֔וֹר | lō-yih-yeh ʾôr} 'there shall be no light' asserts total absence of illumination.
In context — Zechariah 14:6
And it will come to pass on that day that there shall be no light; the precious things will congeal , and frost will be present.
