Subject: Is the 7th "day" still going on? |
Bible Note: Greetings AlienResident! That was exactly my point my friend! The 7th day is still going on simply because God is still resting from creation. However, nothing in this situation implies anything about the length of the first six days. The Hebrew word for day ('Yom') can mean more than simply a 24 hour day. The context will usually indicate the meaning of the term. However, in the creation account, I believe it to be a 24 hour period since the word is defined by the words 'evening' and 'morning'. But, I don't believe that Hebrews 4:4-10 really addresses that point either way. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
