Presumably a truly omnipotent God could have created the world in a mere instant, but how do you write a dramatic and compelling story about something that was all over in a flash? Biblical scholars regard this creation account as a literary construct, so the author no doubt chose the period of seven days in order to explain the span of a week, which is seven days and includes a day of rest.

Islam takes the logic a step further, saying that God has no need for rest (Genesis 2:2) and therefore the Koran says (007.054) the entire period of creation was only six days.



Commonly called the Creation week as the Creator God renewed the face of the Earth all prepared for mankind in 6 days. On the 7th day, God rested and blessed the day for all generations to rest and ponder His great creation. Having established the 'week,' God gave it to mankind for a chronological tool/cycle.

There is no other physical cycle like the lunar month or solar year to 'copy' this timeframe for use. Over the course of millennia, mankind has 'played' with the length of our now 7 day week, all to no satisfactory standing, always reverting back to the 7 day period. Today, scientists are discovering several other 7 day patterns, especially in microbiology. It appears to be all part of a creation design by a divine Creator God and not by chance or happenstance as evolutionist tell the story.

Some days chickens some days feathers?

The phrase, "some days chickens, some days feathers" is a way to express how the world can change in the blink of an eye. One day it is good and the chicken is safe, and the next day the fox gets the chicken and all that is left are feathers. This means life can change, so live it wisely.


How long does it take to blink a million times?

The normal blinking rate varies greatly between people so it is difficult to answer the question in terms of normal blinks. If you try to blink rapidly, the muscles that control the blink will tire quite rapidly and the blink rate will drop dramatically. So again it is difficult to say. If you manage an average of 1 blink per second, then it will take just under 11.6 days - non-stop. Your eyes may get damaged in the process.
