There are 2 views about the 7 day creation week of Genesis 1, they are: that the 7 days were literal 24 or 12 hour days, or that they were (any length) ages/periods like 1000 yrs (yome meaning day &/or (cognate?) aeon).

7 literal days would explain the origin of the 7 day week, (moon not created til # day).
