mid´dā ( היּום מהצית , maḥăcı̄th ha - yōm , צהרים , cohŏrayim  ; ἡμέρα μέση , hēméra mésē ): The Hebrew maḥăcı̄th ha - yōm (  Nehemiah 8:3 ) and the Greek hēmeras mesēs ( Acts 26:13 ) are strictly the middle of the day, but the Hebrew cohŏrayim is a dual form from צהר , cōhar , meaning "light," hence, light or brightness, i.e. the brightest part of the day ( 1 Kings 18:29 ). See Noon .
