How?
(lemmy.world)
perhaps it was sidereal days?
As humans describe a day, it's how long it takes for the earth to complete a rotation. The sun happens to be a useful landmark in determining how long a day is, but when you think about it the the existence of the sun isn't a requirement for a day to pass. Therefore, the first day would be the third day, when god created the earth.
But either way, I think god's frame of reference for how long a day is must be pretty different from ours. After all, doesn't it say somewhere in there that a thousand years is like a blink of an eye to him?
Why would a god need to measure time?
According to the watchmaker arguments God needed to be extremely precise to make the our universe capable of manifesting our little life-supporting speck.
I dunno, you'd have to ask them.
Maybe they've got other things going on, y'know? Like, sure, they were able to get a week off to build the universe. But now they've got to get back to their day job. Rent isn't going to pay itself.

I wager Light is a metaphor for existence, and Darkness is a metaphor for non-existence.
