all the more so give the Sun.....that defines the days.....was not created till the "4th day"Read the account carefully .
(Genesis 1:16-18) And God went on to make the two great luminaries, the greater luminary for dominating the day and the lesser luminary for dominating the night, and also the stars. Thus God put them in the expanse of the heavens to shine upon the earth and to dominate by day and by night and to make a division between the light and the darkness. Then God saw that it was good.
Whereas Genesis 1:1 states that God “created” (Heb., ba·raʼʹ) the heavens and the earth in the beginning, verses 16 and 17 state that, during the fourth creative “day,” “God proceeded to make [Heb., a form of ʽa·sahʹ] the two great luminaries, the greater luminary for dominating the day and the lesser luminary for dominating the night, and also the stars. Thus God put them in the expanse of the heavens to shine upon the earth.”
The heavens which includes the sun moon and stars and the earth were in existence eons before God began to prepare the earth for human habitation. For the first time these sources of light became visible from earth during the 4th creative day.
