Genesis 2:4 is the only verse that might justify a more than literal 6-day creation "These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created."

Which I might add I had never noticed until last week. Which is really sad because I read the entire book.

How so??:scratch:

The Hebrew word that is translated "generations" literally means "an account of" or "a written record." The Septuagint uses the word "biblos" which means "book, scroll, written record, history."
