I'm sorry Jason, I just don't understand a lot of what you say because I'm totally unfamiliar with Jewish thinking. Could you please explain so that this dummy can understand?

yes you are correct, but this general rule applies to when the number precedes the word day, and in this phrase "day one" that is not the case...
I will have to have to ask about that. most translate that as..
but literally?
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=genesis+1&version=YLT
you just negated the yec position. we know that cant be because of the command of shabat. chassidics take the date of creation literally in their calendar and so the others.
ok, the angel unto the LORD. the angel with the sword that visited Joshua before he would do battle with Jericho, the el-shaddai? as in the EL-shaddai. a name of GOD, the great provider!. metatron is the taldumic name for the angel of the Lord.

Wow, I like that. light is the concept when God moves, and darkness is when He doesn't. Very good, I'll remember that.
that is why I don't like trying force genesis into an anti-evolution debate. we miss the simple poetic use and meaning.
I believe the ancient Egyptians had an idea of man evolving from an ooze and I do know they have real similar account of creation and a flood account as well. it may be that genesis one was to correct the errors of being in Egypt for so long.though surely moses heard it by oral means or direct revalation. we don't know. I say orally and direct revalation in that he had god tell him write the account.

Thank you Jason, that helps very much. I appreciate your patience.
the scary thing is how blind the jews are to all this. yet their sages will say that it does point to things that we Christians say and most of those sages were before Christ.

In these five verses we find the second day completed and the third begun. (Again, it is important to remember that the only God, the God that knows everything is having this recorded by, IMHO, the most educated man in the world, at this time.) So we are, by definition, between 24 and 72 hours out of the initial premise of the creation. Before we fail to pay enough attention to the, growing in popularity, Gap Theory let's look back and forward at once. There has been no time (time and space are created by our Timeless God for our lives to be measured in) for a damned to extinction humanoid race to have grown up, producing a wife in Nod for Cain. Important to have this stick now.
Now, some of what has been declared empirical science, is proven. God raised the Dry Land, not lands, and divided the waters. Science has discovered that the pieces of the dry lands of the Earth fit, rather neatly, together. We will see, later on, that all the descendants of Adam and Eve lived in one city until God confused the language and sent them to the far ends of the earth.
An atheist, such as I once was will point out the rate, at which, the plates of the planet move at, making my thesis here incorrect. But, remember, the devote atheist has nothing to do with any god, let alone to do with God. God is not, nor has He ever been, anything less than The Omnipotent God of all. God creates the earth in one seven day period for a reason that will be seen later but He could have completed all of creation in much less time than it takes us to read, "In the beginning..."
Life Application here? If God can raise, perfectly dry land from the bottom of the seas, is there anything, bad or good, that God cannot separate from us?

An interesting allegory to this is that when God said in Gen 1:3, “Gen 1:3 “Let there be light: and there was light.” Now God is the light gone forth into the world. This light is not new for God always was without beginning, but has now come forth to dispel darkness; who or what was the prevailing darkness? Satan?
Now this light is certainly not the sun and the moon created in Gen 1:16, but as Jesus called Himself a light in Joh 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world, and us being light in Mat 5:14. Is God’s love let loose at this early stage of creation?
Evening and Morning were the first day.
This is important to understand that the Sabbath began in the evening on Friday, [approx 6:00 PM] as every day begins at this time.

Gen 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Gen 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Question? What work did God end on the seventh day? Creation? God ended His work or didn't do any work? Is there an ongoing work of God, or did He just throw up His hands and say enuff? Ain’t going to do no more work today! Satan’s in his place, men afraid to stray, the sun’s in its place, no need of rain; I’m just going to lie around heaven all day; nothing can go wrong huh? Is there an eighth day acoming?
