Does the word 'day' in Genesis mean a literal 24 hours, or could it possibly mean something else?
Please state your reason(s) for your answer.
Thanks,
John

years old.

Well since it was mentioned long before the sun and moon were created I find very little reason to believe it is 24 hours.

Is the significance of Genesis that it took God a week to create, or that He bothered to do it at all?
