***the 12 is literal.***

Fascinating; I have just shown you from Scripture and the methodology of Jewish timekeeping that you are wrong.

***So you have no Scriptural support for your claims about Genesis and many of the assertions you have been making? ***

I thought that my Biblical quotes regarding the exceptions to your claims counted as Scriptural support. Joshua’s day was not 24 hours; the Jewish day is not 24 hours (except perhaps twice per year). Scripture says that you are wrong both OT and NT; the Jewish methodology of timekeeping says that you are wrong.

Therefore...

Take it up with Jesus, then. He was the one who said it.

The Jewish day is 24 hours long. On the equator it is 24 hours. In Alaska, it is 24 hours. At the North Pole it is 24 hours. You are basically making a statement that a day is from sunset to sunset, so in effect if a Jew lived in a place where night or day lasted months, then their "day" would effectively span months, which is ludicrous and absurd.
