You didn't answer why you want scripture to bend to the world view.
You're also saying God can't do these things in 24 hour periods.
The 7th day was 24 hours, and God set it apart and commanded His people to remember it because it is holy.
How can the 7th day be 24 hours if the 6th day was a billion years?
Genesis 1:[SUP]16 [/SUP]And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
The 4th day, God made the Sun and Moon. Done after the earth, heaven, light and time.
Just accept the heliocentric model is garbage.

But there is not any time span declared and even from the natural reading of the text it is clear it was not 24 hours.
7th day was not 24 hours neither, because Bible never mentions its end.
The tense used in "And God made... he also made stars" can mean in any past, read something about tenses in Hebrew. The verse before this one is about placing lights into the firmanents, i.e. to make them visible for humans on the surface of the earth.
