[Non-Sequitur]

If the sun stands still, the earth will continue to revolve and night will come. This passage obviously says that the night did not come because God, through Joshua, caused the sun to stand still. Ergo, night comes because the sun revolves around the earth.

But couldn't that be meant in a figurative way? In other words, the night didn't come because the Earth stopped rotating?
