Creation, Genesis 1:16, and the Eclipse

[Papias]

In Genesis, the creation of the sun and moon is described as follows:

And God said, “Let there be lights in the dome of the sky to separate the day from the night; and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years, and let them be lights in the dome of the sky to give light upon the earth.” And it was so. God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars. God set them in the dome of the sky to give light upon the earth, to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. ​

With the coming eclipse, many Christians are reading this section, and concluding that sun and moon are similarly sized ("two great lights"), and that this makes an eclipse possible. Many videos based on this literal reading of the Genesis creation story are showing up, and getting many thousands of views, such as this video:

Do members here see the eclipse as a confirmation of a literal reading of Genesis, with the sun and moon as similar objects inside the hard dome described in Genesis 1?

In Christ-

Papias

No, there are myriad sites that explain it ...also, "two great lights" does not either explicitly or implicitly suggest equal size.
