Thomas Paine asked if God didn’t make the sun until the third day, then what exactly, were the first three “days”?

I think I have read somewhere that the orginal Hebrew word used may mean other things than one solar day.

Day is an english word.

Paine was a bitter man, and his question is a strawman. The Bible does not say that he waited until the third day to make the sun.
