What you are saying is true but i was talking about our own consciousness. It is our consciousness that creates the visible sun and the moon meaning that time is within our consciousness and not necessarily with sun and the moon. If time stops, you can not observe the moon or the sun because making that observation requires time.
If the war raged on then it means time did not stop, only the 'sun stopped'.
If the soldiers were able to observe the sun then it means time did not stop; making an observation requires time, don't you agree?
They say light travels from an object to the eye at a rate (m/s), if the s in that rate is 0, then there's no rate at all and light doesn't travel in this case. If the soldiers were able to observe the sun, then time did not stop. It was only miraculous that the day was made longer as was observed but then compensated by a shorter night IMO.

But God measures time and eternity through you heart (consciousness), so it matters a lot. The reason Paul says the whole universe awaits for the glory to be revealed in you:
Rom 8:
18I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.19For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21that h the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.
22We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. 24For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? 25But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.
Q. So, what is the connection between the universe and our hearts?
People can not believe that God has created the universe through the hearts of men and God will liberate the universe through the hearts of men.

But there's a biblical mystery behind this; time is actually our consciousness. This means that the whole universe is our collective perception.
Ecc 3:9What do workers gain from their toil? 10I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. 11He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet a no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
How God created the universe is a mystery:
Psalm 24:1A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and all who dwell therein. 2For He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.
Isa 51:16And I have put my words in your mouth, and I have covered you in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say to Zion, You are my people.
Prov 20:
5The intentions of a man’s heart are deep waters,
but a man of understanding draws them out.
Proverbs 18:4
The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook.
