Let there be light, said God. And the SUN shone to give light to the world. Thus, the logic suggest the *days of Sun fell on a Sunday (01) and God laboured to creat HIS 'marvel to admire'for humanity to suffere for SEVEN days! There may be other interprettations too.

????? With all due respect, Joe, but are you going gaga or something?... Where is the 'wrong' in what I wrote vis-a-vis the above texts? They actually prove *exactly* what I wrote, i.e. that the 'first day' of the week (obviously 'day' meaning night and day, 24 hours!) was the 'first day of the week', a day which historically is called by English speaking nations as Sunday!
Likewise, historically, the 'seventh day' is the day English speaking people call Saturday! There is undeniable historical proof of that! Suffice it for one to compare how days of the week are called in several languages to see the obvious association!
