Those are metaphors. God is Spirit.
Spirit doesn't sit and watch the sunsets.
As to that, God sits on His throne in His created temple set in His created sun in His created heavens, circling the earth each day, sunset to sunset, and yes, from His dwelling place, in the sun, sitting on His throne, He "sees" Adam persons as "grasshoppers" on the earth below.
The Hebrew; Septuagint, Latin Vulgate, and Douay-Rheims English all state that God has set His tabernacle in the sun, and many Scriptures corroborate that fact.
Unfortunately Galileo caused men to make up myths when they translated the English after that, and KJV completely hacked the Word there.
But God's Word is true from the beginning, and not even a biased translator can change His Truth

Book Of Psalms, 18 [19 in KJV]
verse [6] He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way: [7] His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.
God is uncreated self existing Spirit, existing in three Persons from eternity, and every created living being is one "spirit" [of its kind]. Each created spirit has a body peculiar to its kind, which body is built by the created spirit of the kind for the living soul of the kind to indwell, at conception of the seed of the kind.
We who are called/named "Adam" by our creator are one spirit called "Adam" [Malachi 2:15], and the one created Adam spirit brings us into our Adam being at conception in our pre-ordained season as particular souls who are written in the Book of Life by God the Word before He created the Adam being, and all our parts and days are written in that Book, and we are made and male or female in the flesh of our one Adam being.
God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, is one YHWH Spirit, which word means "LIFE/BREATH". YHWH has one image [Hebrew Tselem], and Adam was created in that one image of the LIFE/BREATH. He who is God the Word and who made all things, made Adam in His own bodily image that was to come [Romans 5:14, Genesis 1:26-28].
He is God the Father of all creation, and the Son was always with Him, hidden in Him, in secret, as "Wisdom", and was to come in a New Creation flesh body named "Israel" [Isaiah 49], not "Adam"; and He is come in that flesh of Human being "Kinsman/Redeemer flesh body that is the exact likeness of the Adam body, but without sin.
Adam was made in His image [Genesis 1:26-28, Romans 5:14], before the fall.
Before the incarnation, God the Word visited and fellowshipped with Adam in the Garden of Eden in the third heaven, each evening, where Paradise is [as Scripture states].
Num 16:22 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh...
He appeared to Israel:
Exo 24:9Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
Exo 24:10 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
Exo 24:11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
He appeared to Ezekiel:
Eze 1:26
And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man/Adam above upon it.
And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.
As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
Isaiah saw Him on the throne in heaven: Isaiah 6; John 12:
37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him: 38 That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? 39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, 40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. 41 These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
