I have been trying to get it through your thick skull that my original statement in reply #7 was referring to the very moment of Creation when the first instance of light of any kind began flooding the void. That light would have come from an extremely large release of energy. A release that I believe to have been precipitated by the words of our Almighty Creator..."Let there be light"

Then tell me; what was the light source on day 2 and day 3?

We know that God created our star (the sun), our moon, and the other stars on the fourth day.

We also know that the Lord said, "Let there be light", on the first day.

We know that there was darkness (evening) and light (day) on each of the first three days, although the sun was (by name) created on the fourth day.

Now, if spoke a light into being on the first day, but created the sun on fourth day, I need for you to tell me how the day one "Let there be light" light came back on the second and third day.

On each the first, second and third day there was both darkness and light.

Oh, are you gong to tell me that God's first release of energy was not enough, causing Him to have to also have a bang on day two and three?

Then tell me; what was the light source on day 2 and day 3?

You tell me.
I have already expressed my belief as to what it was.

Genesis mentions the Sun being created as well as stars and a planet and most likely a moon. Is that all that populates the universe? What about quasi-stellar objects? Quasars. They are not stars nor galaxies yet emit far more energy than a galaxy. What about the Eagle Nebula? Not a star nor a planet yet it emits vast amounts of energy.
And what is light? Does the word 'light' mean to you 'visible light'? How can there be visible light when the first human eyeball had not been created yet? There is all kinds of 'light'.
Again, as I said, we could debate the finer points of Genesis for years and not cover it all. What makes it tiresome is the adversarial attitude you take towards me in your replies. If you wish to discuss these questions, I may indulge you. But not if you insist on maintaining this tone.
It's up to you.
