I'm confused.

Don't feel bad it's probably a result of my clumsy attempt to understand what you were saying.

I first stated: Even in vs. 3 that "light" isn't the sun. The sun wasn't formed until vs.14.

And you replied: I disagree.

It was verse 16 that the "two great lights" are made that we believe are the sun and the moon. I first postulated that the light in v. 3 was the big bang.

I still don't see where there was an age on earth between v. 1&2

There is another thread currently in progress that is discussing this very issue: The possible gap between [Genesis 1:1 and 1:2].

The Hebrew allows the usage of "became" instead of "was" in verse 2.
