In the first verse, dealing with the first day of creation, the text states: ‘God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night’.
In the fourth verse, dealing with the fourth day, the text states: ‘And God made two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth’.
If this is literally true, is it not a grave irrationality?
If the sun and the moon were not created until the fourth day, there cannot have been light and darkness, or morning and evening, as stated to occur in the earlier days.
