For me, its not to be taken literally.
I see. So you don't take any of the 'days of creation' account literally?
The moon does not have its own light source.
The moon is a great light in the night sky, yes, but, only because it is reflecting the suns light. Simple really. Scientific reality too.
The Bible is only describing appearance, not reality then? Because it only appears that the moon is a light, whereas in fact, you say, it's just a reflector.
Do you then consider scripture to merely deal with appearances, or only where it disagrees with your preconceptions?
For instance, Joshua's long day - Sun stand thou still. He was really saying 'Do whatever to make it appear the sun stands still'? And what does your science say that would be?
