I’m trying to make a case for the intent of paralleling the creation activities to the days of the week not being to suggest that Adam carried on at supersonic speeds but being to memorialize the personal care and attention that the Lord put into the acts of creation. Modern old earth creationism theories come pretty close to “scientifically” paralleling the biblical accounts, once vantage points are taken into account. And even we take vantage points into account when speaking of the setting and rising of the sun (which is the globe rotating). I would not expect even OEC to get it perfectly however because of a shift in metaphysics is likely associated with the curse that befell the ground on account of the sin of mankind.
I can respect YEC as another attempt to make systematic sense of the creation account. God is not a God of chaos. I’m not saying it is necessary to have any particular micro view of the creation account to get its main point which is the love and care that the Lord put into its acts.
