It says
in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.......nowhere does it say whose beginning......it says that the earth was dark and void and water was on the face of the deep........could be that it was like that for a very long time and was - perhaps - left to progress on its own from there, or, God made it according to the creation story.....according to the creation story about six thousand years ago. However, it is my opinion that the earth is very old, which the 'in the beginning' bible verse clearly supports. Yes? Yes!

God set them
in the heavens to give light.......tells only that he did so, does not tell WHEN he did so. See that?
