Point taken, and my apologies for questioning. However, it's usually within the context of Genesis that the argument for a six day creation is made.

I humbly accept an apology when it is graciously offered. Even when it is not required.

Most people, myself included, mire themselves in the first couple chapters of Genesis without reading further.

Yes, the Hebrew word for day does have a lesser used definition meaning an age, epoch, or undetermined long period of time. I believe that the verse quoted solidifies the Biblical account as a literal six days.
