Alpha...don't muddy the waters here.  The Jonah and Jericho references were used as an example of "nobody is questioning those days"

 

EXODUS 20:11 is THE BIG DADDY.....

 

(Exodus 20:11) "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."

 

Is there ANY MORE CLEAR WAY GOD could have said it ????!!!!

 

Now, I don't think any person can give a YES answer to that question without compromising their Integrity....Intellectually or otherwise.

 

I'm not muddying the waters at all. In Gen 1 the days are defined by morning and evenings *before the sun was created*. Given that circumstance, I do not think you can naively assume that these are 24 hr periods, as 24 hr periods are contingent on the rotation of the earth with respect to the sun. I have to say, I am not convinced.

 

 

ALPHA......

 

(Exodus 20:11) "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."

 

 

 

What's left so say Sir

 

??????

 

I read this verse before. Increasing the font and bolding stuff doesn't increase my reading comprehension. You aren't addressing my concern.

 

I do not think you can naively assume a 24 hr day applies conceptually to a time before the sun exists when 24 hr days, mornings and evenings are *defined by* the earth-sun system. 'Day' could very well mean something else when applied to that era.. and maybe should.

 

 

I already did addressed your concerns but you didn't answer the simple question. 

 

I will end this....Valentine's Day Dinner with the Misses

 

 

Let me add one final thought:  Don't miss the Forrest through the Trees Sir

 

What question did I miss? I don't think I'm fixating on an irrelevant detail in this case. Since are talking about the ultimate origins, including of the earth-sun system and days/evenings/mornings, this seems legit to me.

 

Enjoy your time.

I'm still working so you can't ask a guy who is retired living on a social security budget to treat. Where is it? The check?

Throwing in a new question here:
 
Was the "star of Bethlehem" a literal star that literally "went on before them" and literally "stood over" the particular place where Jesus was?
 
Or was it possibly an astronomical configuration of some sort that would not have been recognized as having any significance to most people?

Beloved, A Star
 
When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; Matthew 2:9-11
 
A Very Special Star For A Very Special Child
 
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Matthew 1:23

Yes, but was it a LITERAL star?

 

 

Yes Beloved, That Is What All Those Stars Were Created For

 

And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: Genesis 1:14

 

And This Star Was Created As A Very Special Sign Indeed

 

When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. Matthew 2:9

 

Wonderful Questions Pointing Us To The Most

 

And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. Genesis 3:8

 

Wonderful Man Ever To Walk

 

I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. Daniel 7:13-14

Happy

 

Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God. Ephesians 5:2 (NLT)
 

Valentines

 

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 13:34-35 (KJV)

Ad hominem-is he related homo Erectus?

Yes he was a strange creature with a penchant for dissing his opponents.
