Day one light came in this creation; light was not created because God is light. So, light entered into the new realm (e.i v.1). Many simply read over Genesis 1 and don't make any distinction between day 1 and day 4. They don't ponder on what was done on the first day in comparison to the fourth.
I've asked some Christians the following question: what was created on the first day? Some would even say that the sun was created on that day. Their logic is easy to understand; they're was light, so there had to be the sun.
But the truth is that we don't need the sun in our realm in order to have light; it sounds a bit counter intuitive but it's true. There was light before the tangible body that sheds light on our world. Doesn't that ring any bell?
Christ, the eternal Son (in this context: SUN, but this play on words only works in the English language), came into this world to bring forth light. (cp. John 1 & 1 John) Because of the incarnation, the Light has been seen of men and men have 'seen the light!'
