nSeeming Contradiction with known science: Universe and
Earth created before Light?
n 1) In the beginning God (Elohim)
created the heavens and the earth.
(Heavens contains Universe including sun, stars)
n 2) Now the earth was formless and
empty, darkness was over the surface
of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. (note context shift)
n 3) And God said ,”Let there be
light”, and there was light.
nScientific evidence shows that when planets first form
they are surrounded by
extensive shell of gas & debris.
Light was created in
v.1 but became visible in v.3 from context of earth’s surface.
nMany other such ways to resolve apparent contradictions.
