[Polybius]

Six days.

What is a "day"?

According to modern man, a "day" is 24 hours which is the time it takes the Earth to rotate on it's axis (more or less).

According to Genesis, " God called the light 'day'. "

Genesis does not resort to any time frame accepted by modern man to define "day". It uses God's definitition that had absolutely nothing to do with the Earth's rotation around it's axis as "sky" was not created until the second day.

If you are going to takes "God's word" in interpreting the Bible, then you you need to take "God's word" that God defined "day" as "light" and not as modern man defines "day".

[PetroniusMaximus]

***Six days.
What is a "day"?***

A day is an evening and a morning, as in...

"And the evening and the morning were the first day."

-Gen 1 :5

(I would imagine that was put there so we wouldn't miss the literal nature of the "day" refered to!)

God made sure to write this one in stone to avoid the wigglers down the road.

Exodus 20:8-11
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
