A great number of scholars say the creation Days, were not hour days, but long periods of years.
We offer some reasons why this is false.

- The only day which has an evening and morning is a 24-hour day.
- The seventh day of this week was a 24-hour day. Moses says so in Ex. 20:10-11; 31:17.If the seventh day were a 24-hour day, then certainly the other six must have been also.
- The period lighted by the sun was a 24-hour day Gen. 1:5, 14, 18.
- The word used in Gen. 1:5 was a period of light followed by a period of darkness called night. The 24-hour day is the only such period known to man.
- In all the Bible, the word “DAY” is never used of an indefinite period of time when connected with a numeral Gen. 8:3; Num. 13:25; Jonah 1:17; Ex. 20:11:
- The objection is raised that there could have been no 24-hour day, without the sun, and the sun did not appear until the fourth day. Wrong again the 24-hour day is made by the revolution of the earth upon its axis, this was from the first day.
- The days of Gen. 1 were 24-hour days because Gen. 1:14 plainly says that they were the kind of days that made seasons and years.
- The fact that the Bible says that Adam lived 930 years in proof that the days of Gen. 1 were 24-hour days: because that is the only kind of days that make years.
