No, God did not withhold judgment of adam's sin. He was expelled from the garden very soon after eating of the tree.

maybe we could use the day is like a 1000 years to God and 1000 years Like One day.

That verse is sure a favorite when it's needed to explain away certain time elements in the bible. It's one of the main excuse scriptures.
No, the 'thousand years - day' passage has absolutely nothing to do with adam dying the very day he ate of the fruit. In fact, he lived to suffer the consequences for several centuries after that unfortunate event.

Huh?
Quote:
but honestly adam went from basically being immortal to a dying state. Once he ate the fruit he lost his immortality and slowly started dying.

I agree.
Quote:
niv
17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”
New Living Translation (NLT)
17 except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If you eat its fruit, you are sure to die
some leave the day out, but all state the same because of this act you are going to die. and he did like 900 years later

Depends on which dead we're talking about.
