I want to begin this study by saying how much we as Christians ought to disapprove and oppose the opinion of some, that the days which are mentioned here could actually be ages of time in themselves. This view stems from a very low view of God's power; that He could not possibly have created all this in the space of six literal days, but that a work that great certainly would have taken ages of time. This view, it seems to me, does great dishonor to God, and leads to a mistrust of His word in a literal sense altogether. The passage that I just read to you does battle with the Day-Age theory itself when it says after each day of creation passed – “So there was evening and morning” of the day that is being spoken of. This is not an age, it is meant to be understood as one literal day. Evening and Morning are pointing us to the literalness of the words, not the figurativeness of the words.
