There's no competition:
And the evening and the morning were the first day: day one, yom echaD [יום אחד]
And the evening and the morning were the second day: yom shenI [יום שני]
And the evening and the morning were the third day: yom shlishI [יום שלישי]
The red letters spell "DAY" [דיי], just like the name sounds.
Dalet + yud + yud add up to 24. But of course.
Next "myth"...
Now this is not a Sabbath jab about having a "day" (or 3)
before The Sun is created...
But what do you believe that first light is? - in the "let there be light" ? ...What was that first light?
Could it be believed to be the Big Bang ?
Ex nihilo?
