From Scripture, how long is a day?

It depends on the context, doesn't it? In Genesis, God created the world in six "days" and specifically said "evening and morning" were what counted as a day. To humans, in THIS earthly life, a day is approx. 24 hours. But with God - because He is eternal - time is not binding on Him which means our thousand years could be as one day with Him. Not everything is a pat yes or no answer, is it?

Now, can you explain why two Roman Catholics believe two different things about the "good" thief's eternity?

No

Let's get back to the question I asked.

In God's perspective, how long is a day?
