DAY’S JOURNEY
Way of estimating distances in Bible times. A day’s journey approximated 20 miles (32.2 kilometers) but depended on such things as mode of travel, the terrain, and the weather. Scripture refers both to a day’s journey (Ex 3:18; Nm 11:31; 1 Kgs 19:4; Lk 2:44) and to a Sabbath day’s journey (Acts 1:12). A Sabbath day’s journey was probably about 3,500 feet (one kilometer).
