["George F. Somsel" <gfsomsel AT juno.com>]

This would be the period of creation as viewed by the Priestly source. 
It is mythological time.  This is still not a Hebrew question.

Sure Gfsomsel.   About what time period is the following:

Genesis 1:

 26   And God said, Let us make man in our image, after 
our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of 
the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, 
and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that 
creepeth upon the earth.

Hello all

As a side note to this discussion on Habiru/Apiru, I find it interesting
that a vizier with a very semitic-sounding name, Aper-el/Aper-ia, was
part of both Amenhotep III's and Akhenaten's administrations, especially
relatively soon after the expulsion of the Hyksos at the beginning of the
18th dynasty. 

Details of his tomb can be found at:
