How Long Is A Day?

There is a theory that says each of God's days in B’resheet/Genesis were actually millions of years for us. Is this true? Maybe we need to ask what does the word "day" mean in Genesis?

The Hebrew word "yom" is translated as day in B’resheet. Just as our word "day" can have different meanings based on its context, so can the word "yom". For example, in the TANAK “Old Testament” "yom" is translated to mean a 24 hour day 1109 times. It means a long, long period of time--such as an age--about nine times.

However, every time the word "yom" is used with the term evening or morning in the Bible, it means a regular 24 hour day.

Every time the word "yom" is used with a number, such as "40 yom" (40 days), it means a regular 24 hour day.
