1 year as the Bible describes it would be 365 days.

There is such an insignificant change in the earth’s spin and revolution that the times and seasons have remained the same for the last 6000 years: 24 hour days and 365 1/4 day years (based on revolutions around the sun and revolutions of the earth.)
