Peoples opinions including my own concerning your question are totally irrelevant .
What the author of this question is stating is that they got their Biblical info from hear-say , and questioned the Bible instead of seeking to get their questions answered about the Bible .
The meaning of Genesis 1 v 2 is to indicate a benchmark in time.
A timestamp indicating a major global event distinguishing the age of old and the age we know now.
Science helps us out greatly by teaching us that a catastrophic event took place recently in on planet earth’s master clock . Science suggests meteors hit earth causing severe climate change. This climate change caused the world to flood over with ice wiping out all life. Science has provided fossil evidences to support this reality. It is called the ice age .
Scripture refers to this event as the katabole, often translated foundation which can be misleading to some.2Peter instructs us to not be ignorant of this age of old. There is a inconceivably long time gap between Gen 1 v1 and v2. We are talking millions of years.
Verse 2 also has a message about Gods role as the all bountiful creator , His power over it. The Ancient of Days did not create things to be in disorder 11 and chaos 13. He creates in perfect governmental perfection 12.
Science also teaches us the world became void and without form. It was not created that way. (Is45)
Science furthermore has proven the validity of Genesis v2 by tangible fossil evidence. Science proves that by the following published document .
Most of the animal groups that are represented in the fossil record first appear, “fully formed” and identifiable as to their phylum, in the Cambrian, some 550 million years ago. These include such anatomically complex and distinctive types as trilobites, echinoderms, brachiopods, molluscs, and chordates. … The fossil record is therefore of great help proving a creator outside of our realm of comprehension is responsible for life as we know it.
2009 paper in BioEssaysconcedes that “elucidating the materialistic basis of the Cambrian explosion has become more elusive, not less, the more we know about the event itself.”
Genesis chapter one , verse two is monumental in significance and the meaning should be shared and talked about more with others . Yours is a very good question with a very deep meaning answer.
