For example, the word "void" certainly does not mean "not valid as a sphere yet- i.e.; an accretion disk" at all.
True. In the Hebrew it means an undistinguishable ruin among other synonyms. (See Strong's Con) The bracketed commentary uses that choice of word to understand Gen 1:2 as a rational explanation for the ongoing cosmic evolution. Edited by kofh2u, : No reason given.

? Here is what I gleaned from the linkj we are referring to, which included the Planck Era:
A step by step guide to the birth of our Universe. 1) The Planck EraNo current theory of physics can describe what happened at this point in time, however we believe strongly that it was a singularity of pure energy at the start of time. 2) The Inflation EraPart of the Universe expanded from billions of times smaller than a proton to something the size of a football field. This eras lifespan was a hundred billionth of a yoctosecond and was approximately 1,000 trillion trillion degrees centigrade. 3) The Quark EraThis period saw vast number of quark and anti quark (what is quark?) pairs forming from energy and then annihilating back to energy. Gluons and other particles also appeared. This eras lifespan was about 100 millionth of a yocto second and was approximately 10 billion billion degrees centigrade. Time: It’s Relative and Does Not Even Exist Close to the end of the quark era, the Electroweak force separated and the weak interaction, from then on, the forces of nature and physical laws were as they are now experienced. This era was about 1.1 microseconds and temperatures reached 1000 trillion degrees. 4) Hadron EraAround the beginning of this era, quarks and antiquarks began combining to form particles called hadrons. These included baryons (protons and neutrons) anti baryons and mesons. This ear took 1 microsecond to complete an was approximately 10 trillion degrees. 5) Lepton EraLeptons (elections, neutrinos and antiparticles) were very numerous, by the end of this era the electrons annihilated with positrons (anti elections). The lepton era took 1 millisecond and was approximately 1 billion centigrade, by this point in the Big bang the universe was 1000 billion kilometres in diameter. 6) Nucleosynthesis EraNeutrons converged into protons as the Universe cooled, but when there was about one neutron for every seven protons, most remaining neutrons combined with protons to make helium neclei, each with two protons and two neutrons. This era was 1 second long and was about 10 billion centigrade. In the middle of the Nucleosynthesis Era the Universe stretched to 10 light years in diameter (94.6 trillion kilometres) 7) Opaque EraDuring this lengthy era of 200 seconds the sea of matter particles were in a continual state of interaction with photons making the Universe foggy. Temperatures reached 100 million degrees. At the end of the Opaque Era, many more free protons existed than helium neclei, or other atomic neclei. The scene was set for the first atoms to form. When they did about 9 hydrogen atoms were made for each helium atom. A few lithium a deuterium (heavy hydrogen) atoms also formed. NOW, The Hadean Era = Matter EraAt the start of our present era, photons were free to travel through the Universe. Most electrons were bound to atoms until the first stars formed, reheating matter. The diameter of the Universe is currently 100 million light years and rising. (1 light year = 9.6 trillion kilometres) From the way he presented the list, he included the Electro-weak Separation Theory as occurring "NEAR the end of the Quark Era."

A cloud has form.
The word seems pretty good to describe the indistiguighable physical state of cloud-like ever changing mass of gases and rock. VOIDWord: EDA = void Pronounce: bo'-hoo Strong: H922 Orig: from an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, i.e. (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin:--emptiness, void.

You are completely skipping the 'Let there be' portions of day four. But you don't do that for other days. That suggests to me that you are chosing the wrong meaning for set. Put seems to be the proper meaning.
1) The choice among the EQUALLY valid meanings for "set" would be scientifically wrong if one purposefully avoided selecting "appointed, assigned, designated." verb
Set to put, set, put on, put upon, set, appointed, assigned, designated 2) I quoted those words: Gen. 1:15 And let them be( like time keepers?)... lights Edited by kofh2u, : No reason given. Edited by kofh2u, : No reason given. Edited by kofh2u, : No reason given.

The choice among the EQUALLY valid meanings for "set" would be scientifically wrong if one purposefully avoided selecting "appointed, assigned, designated I understand that. But are those choices are consistent with the rest of the verse? In particular, I'm asking to explain what the 'Let there be' portion of the verse describing day 4 is, and I'm also asking you why it should not be interpreted similar to the way the day 1 or day 3 verses are interpreted.Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison. Thoreau: Civil Disobedience (1846) The apathy of the people is enough to make every statue leap from its pedestal and hasten the resurrection of the dead. William Lloyd Garrison. If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning. Frederick Douglass

Yes - I know you only gleaned eight (8) eras from that link. Here is what I gleaned from the linkj we are referring to, which included the Planck Era So, let's accept that for the sake of argument. There are other eras you are conveniently ignoring:9) Grand unification Era 10) Recombination Era Is '10' a good number as well?"There is no great invention, from fire to flying, which has not been hailed as an insult to some god."

KOFH: The choice among the EQUALLY valid meanings for "set" would be scientifically wrong if one purposefully avoided selecting "appointed, assigned, designated NoNuke:I understand that. But are those choices are consistent with the rest of the verse? I fail to distinguish between what you call two uses of "Let there be." The only inconsistency that I can see is the traditional attempt to apply the English language's idomatic use of "made" as if it means CREATED. Neither "set" nor "made" in the Hebrew even hints at the meaning. What are your sentiments in criticizing the tradition of misinterpreting those two very very defining misapplications to the verses in Gen 1:14-19? Edited by kofh2u, : No reason given.

Let's look for some sites which support the idea of explaining the BB is seven or even eight rather concise and generally acceptable ways for scientists to enumerate the general description of what happened. It is true that the classification of the events are subjective.The more detail and introspection into the split second incidents the more complex and numberous we can make the divisions of the event. Here is another science course at a university which teaches the same seven general divisions of the BB expansion using t=Time as the barometer: Astronomy 162Stars, Galaxies, and Cosmology In our first semester of astronomy we were concerned primarily with our own Solar System. In this semester we broaden our perspective and consider the entire Universe. Much of the material for this semester is already on the Web at the Violence in the Cosmos site, but it is arranged in a different order than it will be when the following sequence is completed. Let us now follow the approximate sequence of events that took place in the big bang in terms of the time since the expansion begins.
1) Time ~ 1/100 SecondAt this stage the temperature is about 100 billion Kelvin and the density is more than a billion times that of water. The Universe is expanding rapidly and is very hot; it consists of an undifferentiated soup of matter and radiation in thermal equilibrium. This temperature corresponds to an average energy of the particles of about 8.6 MeV (million electron-Volts). The electrons and positrons are in equilibrium with the photons, the neutrinos and antineutrinos are in equilibrium with the photons, antineutrinos are combining with protons to form positrons and neutrons, and neutrinos are combining with neutrons to form electrons and protons. At this stage the number of protons is about equal to the number of neutrons. 2) Time ~ 1/10 SecondNow the temperature has dropped to several times 10 billion Kelvin and the density is a little over 10 million times that of water as the Universe continues to expand. Because a free neutron is slightly less stable than a free proton, neutrons beta decay to protons plus electrons plus neutrinos with a half-life of approximately 17 minutes. Thus, the initial approximately equal balance between neutrons and protons begins to be tipped in favor of protons. By this time about 62% of the nucleons are protons and 38% are neutrons. The free neutron is unstable, but neutrons in composite nuclei can be stable, so the decay of neutrons will continue until the simplest nucleus (deuterium, the mass-2 isotope of hydrogen) can form. But no composite nuclei can form yet because the temperature implies an average energy for particles in the gas of about 2.6 MeV, and deuterium has a binding energy of only 2.2 MeV and so cannot hold together at these temperatures. This barrier to production of composite nuclei, which allows the free neutrons to be steadily converted to protons, is called the deuterium bottleneck. 3) Time ~ 1 SecondThe temperature has dropped to about 10 billion K as the Universe continues to expand, and the density is now down to about 400,000 times that of water. At this temperature the neutrinos cease to play a role in the continuing evolution, but the deuterium bottleneck still exists so there are no composite nuclei and the neutrons continue to beta decay to protons. At this stage the protons abundance is up to 76% and the neutron abundance has fallen to 24%. 4) Time ~ 13.8 SecondsThe temperature has now fallen to about 3 billion K. The average energy of the particles in the gas has fallen to about 0.25 MeV. This is too low for photons to produce electron-positron pairs so they fall out of thermal equilibrium and the free electrons begin to annihilate all the positrons to form photons. The deuterium bottleneck still keeps appreciable deuterium from forming and the neutrons continue to decay to protons. At this stage the abundance of neutrons has fallen to about 13% and the abundance of protons has risen to about 87%. 5) Time ~ 3 Min 45 SecFinally the temperature drops sufficiently low (about 1 billion K) that deuterium nuclei can hold together. The deuterium bottleneck is thus broken and a rapid sequence of nuclear reactions combines neutrons and protons to form deuterium, and the resulting deuterium with neutrons and protons to form the mass-4 isotope of helium (alpha particles). Thus, all remaining free neutrons are rapidly "cooked" into helium. Elements beyond helium-4 cannot be formed because of the peculiarity that there are no stable mass-5 or mass-8 isotopes in our Universe and the next steps in the most likely reactions to form heavier elements would form mass-5 or mass-8 isotopes. 6) Time ~ 35 MinutesThe temperature is now about 300 million K and the Universe consists of protons, the excess electrons that did not annihilate with the positrons, helium-4 (26% abundance by mass), photons, neutrinos, and antineutrinos. There are no atoms yet because the temperature is still too high for the protons and electrons to bind together. 7) Time ~ 700,000 yearsThe temperature has fallen to several thousand K, which is sufficiently low that electrons and protons can hold together to begin forming hydrogen atoms. Until this point, matter and radiation have been in thermal equilibrium, but now they decouple. As the free electrons are bound up in atoms the primary cross section leading to the scattering of photons (interaction with the free electrons) is removed and the Universe (which has been very opaque until this point) becomes transparent: light can now travel large distances before being absorbed. http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr162/lect/cosmology/hotbb.html

It is true that the classification of the events are subjective. That shoots a hole in your argument. The eras you are speaking of can be any number you choose.

You are just making shit up and moving the goal posts at will.
But every denominational church moves the goal post to insist that God could have done all these things in violation of reason and science. Those organizations saythat, when we finish reading Genesis, we will be so convinced that there is such a fantastic power as that kind of a god that we don't have to make reasonable sense from the Bible anyway. What I believe my bracketed commentary does is demonstrate the alternative to such poor reading comprehension. I oppose the long and traditional premise of a God who creates a rational universe which he let's men image in their mind,... BUT he violates ever sane and rational means by which you insist the Bible explains how he did this. Edited by kofh2u, : No reason given.

Your still just making shit up and moving the goal posts. A cloud is not empty, not indistinguishable ruin or a vacuity.
Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

But I don't "insist the Bible explains how he did this", in fact I point out that Genesis 1 and Genesis 2&3 are factually and scientifically wrong.

That shoots a hole in your argument. The eras you are speaking of can be any number you choose.
My argument for seven divisions of time for the Earth's history does no focus on how many Eras there are. The focus is on events, which are marked in the rocks in seven places.Those events, however, correspond exactly with the 7 geological units that collect all the rock layers into 7 categories based upon catastrophic geological and biological changes from one set to the next. For instance, there is the K-T Mass Extinction moment in the History of the Earth which separated the Mesozoic Era from the Cenozoic Era: Here is another such event.It separated the Paleozoic Era from the Mesozoic Era: The Permo-Triassic (P-T) ExtinctionThe extinction at 253 Ma, the end of the Permian, is the largest of all time: the "Mother of Mass Extinctions" according to Douglas Erwin. The extinction was used by John Phillips 150 years ago to define the end of the Paleozoic Era and the beginning of the Mesozoic. An estimated 57% of all families and 95% of all species of marine animals became extinct. The Paleozoic Fauna was very hard hit, losing especially suspension feeders and carnivores, and almost all the reef dwellers. The Permo-Triassic (P-T) extinction is a major watershed in the history of life on Earth, especially for life in the ocean;

The Hebrew definition says differently. Using the dictionary to support what this choice isn't makinhg stuff up, but showing why and how this makes sense to me as a rational way to understand the text.
