What it means

What the word means, in the words of the lexicons out of copyright — Abbott-Smith, Strong's, and Liddell-Scott-Jones, wherever each has an entry for it.

ὀψέ,

adv. of time,

[in LXX: Ge 24:11, Ex 30:8 (עֶרֶב, הָעַרְבַּיִם בֵּין), Je 2:23; τὸ ὀ., Is 5:11 (נֶשֶׁף)*;]

1. long after, late.

2. late in the day, at evening (opp. to πρωί); in late writers used almost as an indecl. noun (v. MM, xviii): Mk 11:11, 19 13:35.

3. C. gen., late in or on; and, in late writers also after (M, Pr., 72 f.), a sense which seems to be required in Mt 28:1.†
