Genesis chapter 1 states; "God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night, so the evening and the morning were the first day." (verse 5)
"Then God said, 'Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavvens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth;' and it was so." (verse 14)..."so the evening and the morning were the fourth day." (verse 19)
Thus, our 365 day years with 24 hour days were created on the fourth day.
In 2 Peter 3:8, the word "as" is NOT in italics. This literally shows that the statement is simile, meaning "like a thousand years."
Since our days and seasons were not made until God's fourth Day, I ask especially of you who claim creation was made in six 24 hour days, what is a day?
God through Christ Jesus grant you a great day today!!!
