14.41 · Physical Events and States · Light
to dawn, to become light to change from darkness to light in the early morning hours In some languages dawning is divided into more than one aspect or period of time. The first may be only a glimmering of light in the east; the second period makes visibility quite easy; and the third period involves shafts of light or colored clouds visible in the sky immediately before sunrise. Usually an expression for one of these periods of time is more generalized in usage, and therefore it is probably satisfactory to adopt such an expression for any transition from darkness to light.

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἀνατέλλω. Michel 466" (iii/B.c.) ἅμα τῶι ἡλίωι [ἀν]ατέλλοντι, “at daybreak.” It is curious that the astrologer Vettius Valens has no instance of the verb, though he uses its derivatives freely. It survives in MGr. The cpd ἐπανατέλλω occurs in some would-be verse on the wall of a sepulchral vault at Ramleh, age of the Antonines: Prersigke 2134— ᾿Αστὴρ οὐράνιος ὁ ἐπὶ ἀστέρι ἐπανατέλλων ἐσπάσθη.
