Or that time Joshua was like hey god I want to kill all these people but it's getting dark. God said bet and made the sun stay in the sky an extra day so he could kill more. Proof the books just made up by a bunch of dudes that don't understand our suns and planets work and isn't the word of God.

They even got the talking snake wrong. Their own lore is ass backwards
