I hate to be the pooper ... but umm ... the phrase 'by night or day' is a phrase, it does not mean time zones and such, your adding your own theories into your own scriptures, it really does not fit well.
I can make the same theory fit for Psalm 91 in the Bible then ... it says ...
"Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day"
Genesis 31:39 - "whether stolen by day, or stolen by night"
Numbers 9:21 - "...whether it was by day or by night..."
3rdAndLong ... Thats really not impressive. You just mixing in your own theories to make it fit your scriptures.
Alexei: That scripture has no similarity between what happened in Joshua's Day ... the Miracle YHWH did in Joshua's time was LITERAL, it was one long day. The sun stopped for approximately 23 hours and 40 minutes according to various calculations. I shall start a new thread about Joshua's miracle explained.
Thanks.
