it coul be Adam and Eve where actually 1 thousand days old on day 7 l, but they never realised it.
It would make sense because then they would of known what sin was.
you might say what on earth. 😋
And you might say I'm presumptuous.
But if a true 24 hour period didn't start untill day 7 until the lord rested when the sun and moon where Put in place on day 3 they may not have started there cycle until the lord rested.
Adam and Eve could have experienced a day lasting 1000 years.
And here's the but.
They wouldn't have realise it.

i'm not exactly sure what you are getting at.
I think Moses wrote down exactly what God told him.
Any discrepancy would be in how we have taken for granted that Gen 2-3 is a "fine detailing" of day 6, Gen 1.
I am speculating that they were two separate events.
The outcome is still the same.... God created the universe, man, etc....
My speculation would clarify a LOT, if not all, of what the nay-sayers, creation deniers, atheists throw out as "this is why I don't believe in God's creation... because science shows otherwise"..... and it would still be purely scriptural.

God never created the earth over a millions years, that's was a point I made earlier.
I made the point God created the foundations of the earth over millions or even billions of years.
Two separate creatations.
My believe is he created the earth over a thousand years on day 1 of genesis and built it up on the foundations of the earth.
Scripture indicates the foundations where created in his heaven, ( not the heavens that surround the world.) Scripture also indicates the foundations of the earth are eternal, ( stone rock urainimu steal diomonds sapphires gold silver lead copper nickel bronze aluminium all that stuff.

Ok friend dream on this.
how about the idea that when God rested on the seventh day he actual left earth and went back to his dwelling place.
And when he left on the seventh day this is when a true 24 hour period started for earth.
It would make sense that the mechanisms of earth would only start when he had finished building and creating 🙂
So for 6000 years he built earth upon foundations that had been created in his world.
But any living creature on the earth would not have realised one day being as long as a thousand 🙂. But they may have noticed a change 🙂
So in other words when God arrived to build this world he brought his building blocks with him (the foundations of the earth).
And not only Was God here to aid the build but all his angels.

I believe that God gave mankind about 6000 years and then He would end sin on Earth, and Jesus would rule with the saints over one sixth of the world God spared at the Battle of Armageddon for 1000 years.
For the people that believe God used evolution for the process of creation it is not true.
God created everything in their mature state and the life forms in their mature state and they reproduced from there.
For the Bible says they reproduced after their kind which means they did not come from a lower species and move up but the life forms were created in their mature form and then reproduced after their own kind.
Also God created the life forms from the dust of the Earth so they did not come from a lower species and move up.
It says for the first day the evening and the morning was the first day and so on with all 6 days so it was a literal 6 days.
God is an omnipresent Spirit so He does not have to move to create things for He is already there.
So God can simultaneously create all things at the same time.
By the time it takes Him to create one planet He can create them all.
The time it takes Him to make one fish it made them all.
Same with animals and can create all those things at the same time.
Which means God can create fast and could of created all things in less than 6 days if He wanted to but He wanted 6 days to create.

Wow. I'm pretty much at a lose for words after that post. Anyway, I hope you will seriously consider the points made as they come directly from the word. And as you know all answers are in there:
"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" 2 Tim. 3:16

I don't I believe God spent 6000 years building and creating the earth and it's contents and its surrounding the heavens as the lord is very meticulous and precise he didn't want to do a rush Job as he is a true Genius 🙂
But of course to us it would have felt like 6 days but long days
