“We should no more use the creation week narrative to determine how long God spent creating the world than use dates in the book of Exodus to calculate the duration of Israel’s journey from Egypt to Sinai, or other dates in the Pentateuch to calculate the time it took to build the tabernacle. The Torah was not written to preserve those chronologies nor to answer many other questions that modern-day historians and scientists like to ask, interesting and worthy as those questions may be. The Torah was compiled to instruct the faith of God’s people within the cadences of the sabbaths and festivals of farming and worship.”
