20 Reasons Series: Day / Year Principle: #9

Reason #9:
"In the historical books of the Old Testament, days and years are used in a parallel fashion. Notice the following illustrations:

 Exodus 13:10 reads literally in Hebrew that the Passover was to be celebrated ‘from days to days’. Obviously this means from year to year.

 I Samuel 20:6: The Hebrew literally reads ‘sacrifice of the days’ but the context clearly shows it refers to the yearly sacrifice.

 I Samuel 2:19 literally reads, ‘from days to days’

 I Samuel 1:21 literally reads, ‘sacrifice of the days’

 Judges 11:40 literally reads, ‘from days to days, four days each year’

 I Samuel 27:7 literally reads, "days and four months"

 I Kings 1:1 says that David was stricken ‘in days’ but it means ‘years’.

 Genesis 47:9 is an interesting verse in that Jacob speaks of ‘the days of my years’

 Genesis 5:5 states that the days that Adam lived were 930 years.

 Genesis 6:3 is the first time prophecy in the Bible where days are linked with years."
