And when man fell—though that was designed in the economy, there was nothing about it mysterious or unknown to the Gods, they understood it all, it was all planned—but when man fell, the earth fell into space, and took up its abode in this planetary system, and the sun became our light. When the Lord said—“Let there be light,” there was light, for the earth was brought near the sun that it might reflect upon it so as to give us light by day, and the moon to give us light by night. This is the glory the earth came from, and when it is glorified it will return again unto the presence of the Father, and it will dwell there, and these intelligent beings that I am looking at, if they live worthy of it, will dwell upon this earth.” – Brigham Young, Salt Lake City, July 19, 1874
Psalm 104:5; “Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.”
I’m wondering…if the earth fell into space upon the advent of Adam’s fall, can you just imagine the ride he and Eve had that day?
Did they get hurt or did any animals die?
Did they tell their kids about it?
Did they know it happened?
Did trees fall over upon the impact or was it like a feather floating to the ground?
Does the Bible say anything at all about this event?
