Semeron marks the day currently in view, whether for an action, a declaration, or a state continuing to the present.

The adverb marks the day presently in view: it sets the time for requests, actions, events, and statements, and it can occur in clauses describing something that remains true to the present day.

1. The day presently in view · dominant

   As an adverb, it locates what the clause says in the present day. In Matthew 6:11 the APB renders a request for bread “today”; in Luke 19:9 it places salvation’s arrival at the house in that day; and in Acts 20:26 it frames a testimony made “this day.” The same temporal reference can accompany an enduring condition: in 2 Corinthians 3:14 the APB renders that the veil remains “to this very day,” while Hebrews 3:13 applies exhortation during the period called “today.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly presents the temporal setting with “today,” while some clauses use “this day” or “to this very day,” as in Acts 20:26 and 2 Corinthians 3:14. These are verse-level renderings, not definitions of the adverb.
