- Yes, we still see the starry heavens above.
- Yes, we live on the Earth.
- Yes, there are many accounts of creation with the Creator fashioning a relatively "void" world
- Yes, we definitely still see visible light today.
- Yes, we don't see light everywhere.
- We still "see" darkness.
- Yes, we still have a name for lighted time (not talking about the exact word here)--"day" in English.
- Yes, we still name the darkened time--"night" in English.
- Yes, we still combine one lighted time and one darkened time into a single unit--"a day" in English. We talk about six days until Christmas, not six days and six nights.
- Sounds like this is talking about an empty space of air, or sky, surrounding the Earth (see Gen. 7:11), but some uncertainty, as the opening of the "floodgates", or "windows", of heaven in the account of Noah's Flood may have changed the nature of this "expanse".
- We do have water on or in the earth separated from water above our heads (which we see fall as rain today).
- Yes, we still have much dry land separated from surrounding water.
- Yes, we still name the dry land--"earth", "ground", or "land" in English.
- Yes, we still name large bodies of water visible from the Earth's surface--"seas", or "oceans" in English.
