It is interesting to see that you have no comments on my evidence that your theory is flawed, but rather pick on irreverent technicalities. That paints you as oblivious to correction
Not so. You have a valid point, but it is obscured by your bias. Remove the bias and simply have a conversation. You might find that dialog is then produced.
How is the Seventh Night nearly over…???
In the above verse where it states “on the seventh day he rested”…I’m pretty sure that the word “Day”, in that passage, incorporates both Night and Day i.e. One complete day…
In other words, it’s not saying God rested during the “day time”, with the “night time”, still to come…
And also, it’s written from the perspective, of an event, that’s already taken place…
Additionally it’s states, God then blessed the “seventh day”…which surely doesn’t mean, that he just blessed the “day time”…i.e. half of the day!!!

Deal. But it is a two-way-street.
I thought the modern alphabet owes its roots to Egyptian Hieroglyphs and the Phoenician, Paleo-Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek alphabets.

The entire thread is a speculation. I didn't pose everything as the question, "What if." I noted that the entire thread was asking the questions, even in the statements.

If we are to then see this from a dream state, then Genesis 2, where God rests on the Sabbath, could be the day or night of the day of rest. Night is when you sleep. Maybe it is us in the sleep state.

How can we really know anything. The Bible never explains itself except by parable, symbolism and allegory. We didn't know, until Jesus said it, that the temple was a symbol for the body. We didn't know the food was symbolism for baptism until 1 Peter 3 told us. We still don't see baptism for what it represents, even thought we keep having revelation that it's all symbolism for something else.

Again, speculation. If God rested on seventh day, then there must have been an evening between that time and the next day.
People don't realize that the first seven days were Genesis 1 to Genesis 2:3. Yahweh engaged the next day, or the illusion of the next day. How can we know? It's an image, which is like a picture. It's a copy, just as Hebrews 9 states.
What is a dream? A copy of the reality outside your mind. What is the Image God produces? A copy of the one he produced in Genesis 1.
