Thanks for the reply.
Science assumes that the stars came first, be truly the rock on which we now sit could have come first, science does not know for certain. The Bible also says fish were created before the birds, as science speculates. It goes on to say that man was the last thing created, after every other land animal. All this fits broadly in the order proposed by evolutionists.
Remember the text is written to a total non-science person/culture, so I wouldn’t expect it to go into details that today’s various scientific disciplines are attempting to convey. I’m just sayin the general flow is there.
We know absolutely that stars existed before the earth. Most of the elements on earth were created in stars before the earth formed. The reason it formed was because of the gravitational attraction of the Sun which is also a star.
