So, what does it mean in Genesis 1:5-2:2 when it's used in conjunction with ordinal numbers (i.e., the first day, the second day, the third day, the fourth day, the fifth day, the sixth day, and the seventh day)? Are these 24-hour periods or something else? Could yom as it is used here mean an unspecified period of time?
Hivyo, linamaanisha nini katika Mwanzo 1:5-2:2 wakati limetumika kwa kushirikiana wa idadi ya kawaida (yaani, siku ya kwanza, siku ya pili, siku ya tatu, siku ya nne, siku ya tano, siku ya sita, na siku ya saba)? Je, hivi ni vipindi vya saa 24 au ni kitu kingine? Je, Yom jinsi limetumika hapa linamaanisha kipindi kisichojulikana cha wakati?
