'Long' in the Bible

Or do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law is master of a person for as long a time [as] he lives?

Just as it is written, "On account of you we are being put to death the whole day [long]; we are considered as sheep for slaughter."

But about Israel he says, "The whole day [long] I held out my hands to a disobedient and resistant people."
