The Bible needs to be re-translated in "light" of
the most recent facts.

Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the Big Bang
which contained the future ingredients of the sun,
the earth, the moon, and everything else that
exists in the universe today.

Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

And God said, Let the universe expand and cool so that
space becomes transparent and photons can move freely
at the speed of light.

Now: When God said "Let there be Light", What type
of antenna was he using?

For the first ~400,000 years after the Big Bang, the
universe was opaque. When the universe became transparent
thus allowing light to propagate freely, it would
be another ~7-8 billion years before the sun and the
earth coalesced from the primal material.

Have you ever read Mark Twain's "Letters From Earth"?

Here is where we always go wrong. Re-interpreting things based on our own
understanding. This is how the flat-earth people got started. If it don't
make sense, just leave it there as a curiosity until it should make sense
when all is revealed. Lean not on your own understanding.
