I would say it is just as easily your error,[...]

Perhaps, but I don't think so.

[...]the church teaches that every thing was created in 6 of our literal days because it says days in genesis 1 but they ignore the fact that genesis 2 dispels the notion that the days are literal.

Gen 2:4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, (e-Sword:KJV)

Gen 2:4 These are births of the heavens and of the earth in their being prepared, in the day of Jehovah God's making earth and heavens; (e-Sword:Young's Literal Translation)

It seems to me the passage you quote speaks to order-of-decent, the ordering of the creation.

As I said, study the Jubilees. The proof is there. It is literally one week of time.

I believe Gen 1 is the ordering of the creation and Gen two is talking about the fulfilling of it.

Gen 2:1
Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.

5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.

Gods work was finished was finished but it had not become fulfilled because the trees had not grown nor was there a man to till the ground.

6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Verse one says it was finished verse 7 shows that God did some special work at a later time.

I have read about the Jubilees but have not read it but I can not see that it would add anything because we are looking at it from entirely two different angles.

2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

God does things in his time, all of our times are to correspond with Gods time not the other way around so we use 7 literal days to correspond with the seven days of Gods time.

At least that is what I believe, as I know nothing.
