I think the implication is that the sun was in the same position in the sky, meaning the earth stopped spinning without everyone being launched sideways at 1,000mp/h
Also, how do you have a ‘day’ without the earths rotation? Do they just mean 24 hours? It’s like the days in Genesis, apparently the sun was made on the fourth DAY. That one’s a head scratcher. Also, God made light on day 1. What light? God’s fucking flashlight?
And one final interesting fact, our sun is actually moving at 200km/s, as is earth, and everything else in our solar system, as it moves around the milky way.
Debunking shit in the Bible really feels like you’re that guy who is deliberately looking for plotholes while watching a movie and everyone else going “shut up you’re ruining it”, but you know the movie is trash and makes no fucking sense.

To be fair, nothing is ever stationary except in very specific frames of reference. I think it’s usually fair to say that the sun is stationary because most of the time when we discuss observations involving the sun, those observation happen within our solar system so the sun is the frame of reference. Otherwise you’d have to constantly point out that a house, tree, mountain or whatever is not stationary, because it moves with the earth.
Number 6 is technically correct. On a human timescale, the sun does stand still. On a universe timescale, it’s moved around a bit.

Yep. Just being pedantic for the sake of it lol. A lot of people don’t realize our solar system is flying through space at astronomical speed.
I suppose technically the only thing which is stationary is the center of the universe.
