Spiritual day vs Natural day

[kickedoutofchurch]

I wanted to post this in the science forum, but don't seem to be able to.

I am trying to find the scripture that tells us that a day is a literal 24 hours or a natural day like we are familiar with. Personally, I believe a "day" in Genesis is a spiritual day of unknown natural length, but am open to hear other thoughts. I don't find any scripture on a day being a literal 24 hours.

Do you find any?

Thanks.

It will be night/evening and day/morning that will be the 24 hrs. A full one day period.
