God's Day Starts at Sunrise, Part 7

In spite of all the evidence I have presented that God's day begins at sunrise, the false ideas of man's habits and customs trap many.  Worse yet, the majority couldn't care less.

Some try to wrongly interpret the Bible in support of sunset as the start of the day.

For example, Mark 1:32:

[Mar 1:32 KJV] "32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto Him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils."

At this time, very near the start of Jesus' ministry,  Jesus drove a demon out of a man while in the synagogue on the Sabbath day.  Then after the sun goes down, many brought their loved ones to Jesus for healing.

Those steeped in the myth of sundown as taught by the Babylonians (,is this not sufficient warning ?) interprit this to mean that Jesus recklessly healed during the Sabbath day, angering the Pharisees, Saduccies, scribes, and lawyers at the synagogue.  The people were less brave than Jesus, so they supposedly waited until after sundown when Sabbath ended, then arrived for their healings.

While that is one possibility, there are other possible interpretations:

1. At Jesus' time, the Pharisees were the dominant faction in charge of the 2nd. Temple, the Sanhedrin, and thus all or most synagogues.  The Pharisees incorrectly believed Sabbath began & ended at sundown, unlike the Saduccies, Essenes, and Zadokites.  By waiting till after sundown, the people avoid the problem.
2. Seeing the healing in the synagogue, they pondered and discussed it as a family at home.  The plan was eventually hatched to seek healing for their loved one too.  It took time and effort to find out where Jesus went after synagogue, then to arrange the transport of their loved one to Jesus.  Their arrival after sundown speaks more about logistics and coincidence, rather than a mandatory sequencing.
3. Law of Moses specifically forbids carrying something out of one's house, &/or carrying something in the streets during Sabbath.   A sick loved one would fit that description of something being carried.  By waiting till after sundown, they might escape notice of the busybodies and gossipers, and the resulting backlash. 
4. Jesus had quickly become counter-culture, an affront to the historical Jewish authority. Anybody seen talking to Jedus, following Jesus, or getting healed by Jesus would be seen as against the established leadership.
5. Other similar, or different reasons.
