I'm in a discussion with a creationist who believes in 6 literal 24-hour
days of creation. Can anyone point me to good resources for the use of yom
in the Biblical texts and Rabbnic texts? From what I gather in BDB, the
singular use of yom in the Biblical text generally refers to a single day,
but I feel as if I'm missing something here.

Any help would be appreciated.
