bodies seems to reach the earth instantly, though it now takes thousands or millions of years for their light to reach the earth. How can the bible, the word of almighty "god," be so full of this kind of incredible nonsense?

In the case of the "night an day" before there was a sun, "god" must have been able to create retroactive light. In the case of light from the the heavenly bodies, "god" was able to increase the speed of light by millions of times, then later on "he" readjusted the speed of light to what it is now. There, that was easy wasn't it?

The Hebrew word rendered “make” in verse 16 is not the same as the word for “create” used in Genesis chapter 1, verses 1, 21, and 27. “The heavens” that included the luminaries were created long before the “first day” even began. But their light did not reach the surface of the earth. On the first day, “there came to be light” because diffused light penetrated the cloud layers and became visible on the earth. The rotating earth thus began to have alternating day and night. (Genesis 1:1-3, 5) The sources of that light still remained invisible from the earth. During the fourth creative period, however, a notable change took place. The sun, the moon, and the stars were now made “to shine upon the earth.” (Genesis 1:17) “God proceeded to make” them in that they could now be seen from the earth.

indeed, evening and morning occur for six days,
and one day [is] as a thousand years
which things are an allegory
and also a mystery to solve
by seek and ye shall find
find grace in time, to help
seventh day has no mention of evening and morning,
which are darkness(night) & light(day), law & grace.
God saw good x 6, then very good 7th time
Law is good, but only grace is very(truly) good
for law is both good and evil, witch ends with evil
It's now the third day is the seventh day is the last day
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

Here is another example of inconsistencies with the bible
According to GEN. 1:1 -- 2:3 the order of creation is a follows
Plants then marine animals then land animals and finally man
BUT in GEN. 2:4 the order of creation is
Man, then plants then land animals and finally woman

Job 28, tell you when God first created every thing.
Genesis is when God renewed the earth, after Satan's sin had just about destroyed every thing.
Its not every one that is given the understanding of the bible . and I'm pretty much sure it wasn't given to you.

its poetic.. the meaning of "and the evening and morning were the Nth day" is something like "from mixed chaotic stuff transforming to order was the Nth era"
evening is when things get dark enough to not distinguish shapes anymore; morning is when there is enough light to again distinguish.
it speaks of "reversing entropy" not of night and day as seen from the earth

The "Light" before the creation of the sun was Jesus Christ He is the Light

Think out of the BOX those that are only able to see/feel/think along one line are in for disappointing life.

Try to read it in symbolic code and it makes perfect sense... too many people read it as literal... it is also misprinted.
