Biblical Concept: Day in Genesis 1-2

1:5a, day = part of time. Not a 24 hour day.
1:5b, day = part of counting time.  Day = a breaking forth of
         orderliness.  Different than the day of 5a.  Not necessarily a
         24 hour day.  Cf. 1:8, 13, 19, 23, 31 and 2:2.
1:14a, day = part of time. Not a 24 hour day.
1:14b, day = part of counting time.  Different than the day of
           1:14a. Probably a 24 hour day.
2:2-3, the seventh creative day does not have an evening and
          morning connected with it, because there is no longer
          “disorder” in creation that needs God’s creative activity.
          Not a 24 hour day, because God is still resting from His
          creative activity.
2:4, day = parts of days 1, 3, 5, & 6. Not a 24 hour day.
2:7-25, Day six details: Trees of fruit, ready to eat in 2:8-9 and
            2:16-17.  Not a 24 hour day.  Or a 24 hour day with funny
            time like no other day.
2:17, day = day of spiritual death.  Not a 24 hour day.  "Time" is a
         possible translation.
