DAY ONE
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. (KJV)
The heaven [sha-mah-yim], plural form in the Hebrew, is actually the same word that is used for waters [mah-yim H2O] but with an additional letter sheen perhaps connoting “of” the waters. It and the earth were created by God; they had not existed previously. The earth didn't have a definite shape, and it was dark (v.2); light had not been made yet. The surface wasn't determinable, nor was there obvious symmetry. Maxwell's equations are insufficient to apply to the matter of this time-phase. There were waters, upon which the Spirit of the Lord hovered upon. Subsequently, the Lord said, “Let there be light...”; and there was light (v.3). The creator (the Lord) created light through an act of speech. As soon as He spoke, its creation existed. The Lord saw that the light was good, and He divided (another time-phase operation of creation) it from the darkness (v.4). He called the light “Day”, and the darkness “Night” (v.5). This was the first day, the darkness (evening) and the day (light). So as far as creation goes, matter and darkness existed before light. When light was created and divided from the darkness, the interval of the day began.
DAY TWO (A different time in time-phase relationship in regard to day one moving toward future eternity)
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
God spoke again and the creation was improved with an addition of a firmament (v.6). By His order it divided the waters from the waters. So the heaven was surrounded by waters below and above (v.7). God called the firmament heaven. Another evening (time of darkness) and a morning (time of light) had passed, which was the second day of the creation (v.8). The secular, “big bang” and particle theories do not go into the detail of the dividing and discontinuance of the observation of the light due to the darkness (before the sun, stars and moon were created).
DAY THREE
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. 11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
Dry land (a different form of matter than the waters) appeared out of the waters which were gathered together unto one place due to God's command (v.9) that were underneath the heaven. God called the land earth and the waters seas. God saw that it was good (v. 10).
So by this time, the earth and the heaven was formed. There was night and day without the sun. Vegetation with the ability to reproduce itself had begun to grow (v. 11).
DAY FOUR
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
An additional work was done unto the existing previous heaven of day three; lights were made in it. They divided the day from the night, and they were for measurement of time (v. 14) among other things. The light that came about on day four was from a specific mass (the sun), but there was no mention of a mass source for the previous light. Before day four, Einstein's equation would not have a calculable time reference. String Theory and its revolutions can't determine the undeterminable. The lights also were a unique, other than the former, way of dividing the day from the night.
So it seems, the earth had vegetation and a heaven surrounded by waters before the stars were made. Once the sun and stars were made, a uniform and measurable rotation of the earth must have begun. Configuration and motion from the heaven became at least partially intelligible. Our universe evolved and advanced from the void to the pronounced. Hence, our maximum probability for discovery would not extend as far back as the fourth night interval (when motion from the heaven was not intelligible). The distance from the earth to the extreme end of the stars extended toward the surrounding waters. Summarizing, time began on day one but measurement of time did not begin until day four (it seems within the eighth interval of twelve night-day creation intervals; perhaps the unique light of day one could no longer be recognized due to the displacement of the new lights, being closer to the earth). Thus, scientific advancement would unlikely be able to research beyond the measurable stars and the principles of physics attributed to them on their day of creation.
