"When did the moving begin?"


When did the moving begin?
There are two teachings:
one teaching is that the sun moves around the earth, once a day,
and the second teaching is that the earth spins fully around once a day, and that the earth moves around the sun once a year.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

The first day the earth and the heaven were created, but not the sun and the moon, yet.
For the 1st teaching, this has no regard to anything moving yet.
For the 2nd teaching, was the earth spinning before the sun was created?
The earth couldn't have been moving in a circle (ellipse) with a 93 million mile radius yet, as the firmament was not until the next day?

Genesis 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
  7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
  8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

So, was outer space made the second day?
For the 1st teaching, this has no regard to anything moving, yet.
For the 2nd teaching, did the earth begin spinning and moving in a large circle (ellipse) on the second day, before the sun was created?

Genesis 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
  15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
  16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
  17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
  18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
  19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

So, it appears that the sun, moon, and stars were finally created on the fourth day?
For the 1st teaching, did the sun begin to move around the earth, once a day, as soon as it was created?
Also, for the 1st teaching, did the moon begin to move around the earth, once every 28 days, as soon as it was created.
For the 2nd teaching, as soon as it was created, was the sun placed into the circle (ellipse) that the earth was already moving in?
Also, as soon as it was created, was the moon put into orbit about an already spinning and orbiting earth?
Or did the earth only begin to spin on its axis, and to orbit the sun, after the sun was created on the fourth day?
Was the moon placed in orbit about the earth before the earth began to move, or afterwards?
Or did the earth and the moon begin to move at the same time, the day that the sun and moon were created?
If the earth began to move after the third day, then would it have affected the waters that were gathered together on the third day?

Genesis 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
  10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

Did the earth immediately go to its final spinning and orbiting rates, or did it slowly accelerate up to speed?
Because if it suddenly began spinning at once per day,
then wouldn't the waters that had previously been gathered together on the third day,
follow, "a body at rest tends to stay at rest, unless acted upon by external force"?
Did the planet begin moving, but not initially the water, causing great tidal effects, until the water finally sped up?
Wouldn't that have "un-gathered" the water, or at least regather it differently, until it reached the same speed as the planet?
