Please explain Morning and Evening
"And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. [Genesis 1:5 KJV]
Please explain the concept of "morning" and "evening" after the light and darkness had been separated. What is the point of reference? My right cheek is in light and my left cheek is in darkness, so my nose is "morning". (It's running, actually)
There's nothing to stand on yet to face the light or darkness, so how does one get a half-light? How does a literalist explain that? The second sentence of the 5th verse contradicts the first sentence.
