At least I have a conclusion based on certain verses and biblical chronology. What's your conclusion on 2 Peter 3:8? Just an obscure, indefinite long period of time? An eternity or like "forever"? That's no interpretation or conclusion at all.
Oh great, so Big Bang is from scripture? That mother earth is “billion years old" instead of created in seven days? You choose to deny it because it's inherently incompatible with the Big Bang, and it becomes inconvenient.

Definitely not. BB is a Jesuit construction, by George's Henri Lemaitre, SJ and held by many since like Guy Consolmagno, SJ. You'll find if you look, evolution, uniformitarianism, great ageism (even denial of the physical resurrection of Jesus, like Karl Rahner, SJ even Ratzinger (Benedict XVI)) is always backed by the modern Jesuits (including current Jesuit 'pope' Francis I (Jorge Bergoglio, SJ)), and fraudulently (Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, SJ -. Piltdown, etc). Even LeMarck was trained in Jesuit education.
Of course, it violates their sainted holy doctor Thomas Aquinas in Summa Theologica who was recent (6k) YEC, Global floodist, and the Summa bearing Nihil Obstat, Imprimatur, etc. See the quotes in my original link on 7000 year historical quotes.

I'm not Catholic. The. Temple where Gid resides isn't made with human hands.
Our bosies are his Temple.
The scapegoat is the living One, over whom sin was confessed and then went into the wilderness (the world) along with an able bodied man, which is what Jesus does with us now.
I'm not changing times or the law. I'm looking at it in the light of Christ.

No, the scape goat is the symbol of the devil, not Jesus. Perhaps consider the Bible's testimony and historical Christianity:

Believers reign for eternity. The misunderstanding is in thinking, "We will be made new...later...in the far future." The fact is, we're being made new...now. We will be transformed... later.
We need to understand that what is true...has always been true. Gods' ways aren't the ways of unbelievers. Unfortunately, theologians have adopted a worldly perspective of dominion, power, might, call it what you want, and interpret scripture that way. But after unbelievers did everything in their power to rid themselves of God, he's still living. And he defeated them with the sword from his mouth.

No, day of Atonement took place in, fall (7th month Ethanim) not spring (1st month Abib).
No, day of Atonement takes place after Trumpets, after Pentecost, after Firstfruits, after Unleavened, after Passover, and before Tabernacles. It cannot, and never has taken place before Pentecost at the time of Passover.
No, day of Atonement requires the Ark of God and it's mercy seat, and Most Holy place, as well as high priest, none of which were present at Passover. Jesus was not made high priest until Pentecost. The Ark of God and Most Holy place are not utilized or witnessed until the period of the 6th and 7th churches in Revelation. See also Hebrews.
No, day of Atonement required the casting of lots between two goats, only one of which was for the LORD, and the other for the scapegoat. Never in scripture are lots cast between two or more things if they represent the same thing or person.
No, day of Atonement required the fit man to remove the scapegoat, and the fit man is Jesus, see also Rev. 20 and Isa. 24.
No, day of Atonement scapegoat represents sin (as all goats do), not the risen Jesus.
No, day of Atonement scapegoat was taken into the empty wilderness never to return. Jesus, the fit man returns. Scapegoat (devil) does not return. See Rev. 20 & Isa. 24 and Nahum 1:9.

A model based on a nonliteral interpretation of the Genesis creation story would also rely on scripture to form its conclusions and chronology. Metaphor does not mean "none of this is real" only that there are hidden meanings represented by the descriptions.
It is a scripturally valid model to observe some lengths of time as figurative. Particularly in cases where 1000 years is mentioned or 1 day, or "the day of" something.
From a figurative interpretation, because the longest living human lived less than 1000 years, 1000 years can be seen an arbitrary, nonspecific, length of time longer than any mortal human can experience.
The reason we know at least one of the passages is figurative is because 2 Peter 3:8 and Psalms 90:4 cannot both be literally true at the same time. It is therefore the case that at least some descriptions in scripture are necessarily figurative.
No one claimed that the Big Bang was "from scripture" but the Big Bang is not necessarily incompatible with scripture.
It is could be the case that it was 7 literal 24 hour days. It could also be the case that "day" is figurative in Gen 1. A literal interpretation is indeed incompatible with a typical Big Bang model, but it is not necessarily the case that the Genesis account is literal.
Is Jesus literally bread? (John 6:35) Is the earth literally flat? Is heaven literally a physical place in the sky underneath water? (Genesis 1:6-8). It would be an unusual position to interpret everything in scripture literally.
Clearly there needs to be process behind what we reasonably consider to be literal and that which we consider to be figurative language. It's easy to turn off your brain and go on autopilot interpreting everything at face value, but scripture calls us to think about things and test all things. Interpreting everything as necessarily literal is not good exegesis.
