RE: Were the seven days of creation in Genesis seven twenty four hour periods? - Some conclusions
Your interpretation of the creation is interesting espacially as today is the seventh day and we are suppose to rest from steemith, but the kick and fun in steeming will never allow us to have a day rest even if we are on holiday: Great post as usual from you and keep steeming...powering up too. Upvoted. Glad that am following you and thus sending in my support to your posts..keep it up
Yup, steemit is crazy stuff, but actually today is the first day of the week, the seventh is Saturday and begins Friday at sundown according to Hebrew reckoning.
Ok, according to the Hebrew however I am Catholic haha and today is the seventh day in my Christian Doctrine..Ie Sunday, day of rest in the new testament. However your post is based on the old testament ie the story of creation and you are correct according to it. Will stay in touch with you buddy in order to read more...very interesting.
Actually even to Catholics and other Christians, Sunday is the first day of the week. Christians switched the Sabbath from Saturday, the seventh day, to Sunday the first day, to commemorate the resurrection of Christ.
You are correct...however currently we practice our Sabbath on Sunday instead of Saturday hence why most christians dont work on sunday and monday is termed first day of the week. Depends on where you look at it
"On this day the first of days..."
The biggest joke here is the argument of switching the sabath day which in no way latters as everything is relative, even time! The thing, is non of this is constant meurement and could hve changed throught history. Saturday? Sunday? Does it matter at all.
Really interesting interpretation indeed. Great read for a lazy Sunday! :)
