What is one God hour in man time?
1000 years to human is equivalent 1 day to god
Answer:There is no way to know the answer to this question. God exists outside our space-time and is not concerned with the hands on a clock. 2 Peter 3:8 says "...that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." This is a simile comparing two very different things. This should not be taken to mean 1000 years equals one day and visa versa. No evidence indicates the Israelites counted seconds, minutes, or even hours (the Jews of the New Testament learned to count hours from the Romans). The day was divided into watches, measured by the observation of the sun's position in the sky. Their months were counted from one new moon to the next. There years were counted by the cycle of the seasons.Commander killed with tent stake bible?
