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?
A day was a day was before we knew it was about rotation of the earth.
I asked God, "what's a million years to you?"
And God replied, "a second."
I asked God, "what's a million dollars to you?"
And God replied, "a penny."
I asked God, "can I have a million dollars?'
And God said, "yes... in a second."
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.
Watchmaker Analogy
He obviously had an Apple watch that had the time.
All the gods and demigods had them to communicate.
I heard that Mercury used a Fitbit.
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.
