Welcome to the forum Rex, this forum is geared for studying Scripture and we all fancy a bit of prophecy. But I would remiss if I don't request you to please read Future History by Ken Power in order to get a good understanding of how we on this forum view prophecy. If you get the chance please read Yada Yahweh by Yada as well.
Let me get straight to the point, no beating around bush and hopefully I don't ramble. The one day is as a thousand years passage
is related to God's 6+1 timetable of events. Throughout the Torah we have 6+1 all over the place, right in Genesis 1 already, to the Sabbath rest, to the Feasts, to the Menorah Lamp, and to numerous laws all relating to this formula. Sadly, Christians ignore the Torah, thereby having to make huge leaps and bounds and twists and turns in order to figure out prophecy, all because they don't even want to open so much as an eye-lid to the Torah.
If we read Genesis 1 we find that each day (a time period of creation that transpired over approximately 14 billion years) can be linked to the last 6 Millennia of man's history since the Fall of Adam. In 2 Peter 3, Peter is reminding us to know the formula because it's the key to knowing when Yahweh returns. Peter tells us that Day 2 of creation
must be correlated to the 2nd Millennium of man's history since the fall. Day 2 of creation, the formation of our solar system, happened in the region of 7,750,000,000 to 3,750,000,000 years ago, and Noah's flood happened in 2968 BCE, the start of the 2nd Millennium. In both cases water was used to cause separation.
So this is how the calendar looks so far, each number relates to the start of that millennium:
1) Adam sinned in 3968 BCE
2) Noah's flood in 2968 BCE
3) Abraham took Isaace up the Mount on Passover in 1968 BCE
4) Solomon began building the temple in 968 BCE
5) Yahshua was crucified on Passover in 33 CE, spent Unleavened Bread in the grave, and rose to life on First Fruits. Exactly 50 (or is 49 days?) the Spirit descended on the Disciples on Sevens, or Pentecost.
6) The water below Jerusalem became poisoned during the Passover week of 1033 CE, in accordance with the Number 5 divorce decree
7) Yahweh returns on the Day of Reconcilliations of 2033 CE, which happens to be 2nd of Oct, exactly 5 days later on 7th October the 7th Millennium will begin on the Feast of Sukah/Tabernacles.
Note: each Millennium is spaced evenly,
exactly 1000 years apart. One day is as a thousand years! Also, from Adam to Abraham is exactly 40 Jubilee periods, and from Abraham to Yahshua is another 40 Jubilee periods, and from Yahshua to His return in 2033 is exactly 40 Jubilee periods. The 2033 is the next Jubilee on the Hebrew calendar, and that should speak volumes.

If you don't believe us I recommend you read FH and YY, and The Owner's Manual by Ken Power which also happens to be an eye-opener and confirms all I just said. All, well most of, your passages you mentioned are discussed in great detail in their books. Their books are free and available online for you to read.
Rex, all the information is there for us to know because Yahweh wants us to know. By "there" I mean in the Torah.
Anyway, welcome to the forum again.
