So True, time isn't the same for all as the notion says. Some have the same time but in reality the way time moves for a person is different from another.ReaderAisha2020 wrote: ↑13 Mar 2021, 03:00 We often experience tome differently. Although we use clocks and watches to measure time "objectively," we often don't feel that time. We perceive a minute as a long time at times, and a day as finishing in a minute in others. Time seems to pass quickly at times, and slowly at others, so it seems to depend on other factors. Even we see people of the same age are often not the same, so they seem to have experienced time differently.
Time does not apply to God, since He created it and is not subject to time. Therefore, I guess that the periods referred to are those outside of this world and within another realm and they are the closest thing to what we would call a day or certain periods.

According to Einstein Time is relative to something else. If for example you are on a deadline. Your time will move relative to that deadline.In scripture time moved relative to something. the last supper occured in relative time to the cruxificion of JesusViviVivid wrote: ↑13 Mar 2021, 10:19 Time is something that's not absolute as famously said by Einstein. For someone sitting idly or going through a difficult time might feel that the time is passing slower but someone who is enjoying and is with their loved ones would feel it went by quickly. This could be the reason for the confusing time allotment in these scriptures. Difficult times seem to pass much slower than happier ones. Since there was no way of measuring the time it is quite difficult to understand the exact point of occurrence of the event. The important thing is not time but what we learn from these texts and what they are trying to tell.
