The Bible is not literal in most passages. And you can’t expect anyone to take an argument seriously that is supported by the publication that you quoted.

"The Hebrew word for day, yom, as in English, is used both for a literal, twenty-four-hour day and also for an indefinite period of time, such as in the expression “For the day of the Lord is at hand” (Joel 1:15). However, the word, yom, always means a twenty-four-hour literal day when it is used with a numeral—day one, day two, first day, second day, etc. There are no exceptions to this rule. In the Genesis Creation account, yom is used with a numeral, indicating that it intends the reader to understand that these are literal days of twenty-four hours."

"There are no exceptions to this rule"

Jesus Christ created the world in 6 literal days, then he rested on the 7th day, in commemoration of his creation. We are commanded to do the same in the 4th commandment. It is not a request. (there's plenty of pressure/ridicule from many members on this site not to. No one ever said obeying God would be easy. But, that's just what most "Christians" want, EASY. Follow the crowd down the broad path and wide gate, and see where it leads you).

Matthew 7: 13Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.…

Either I'm right about Yom, "when it is used with a numeral—day one, day two, first day, second day, etc..." or I'm not. The bible shows that I'm right.
