I am reading that in Genesis 1:16
"16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars"

Thanks for any help.

tebone0315,
Thanks, but I am more curious what the source of the light is from 1:3
"And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. "

I Think that is Deeper than just the Sun or the Moon. Still studying it.
You see, the Sun is a Star.
We don't think of it much like that.
But it is a Star.
Yep, something Deeper going on here.

The sun and moon, only problem is, the moon is not a light, it's a reflection.

Perhaps the Big Bang! But of course biblical followers may claim that he/she didn't say, "Let there be a big bang." It's all a matter of perception if you ask me and how we perceive is the reason we are the way we all are today. This is our experimental phase in His/her experiment.
