This is what creation, and a literal interpretation of it is good for -it will grant you the authority to do like wise as the creator.
God didn't make the world by hire a construction company. Nor did he dig a pit, to find early lifeforms, dead indeed, the fossilrecord available to the hearers of science, with shovels. He didn't create the world with brick and stone.
He said, "let there be..."
He used is word...
That is literacy and the ability to read and write.
But you need faith.
John reads "...through him all things were made" addressing the word and it's function.
So for all i know, someone might have used this gift, to produce computers (They are not handmade, imagine that), cars, ovens, and televisions. All things were created through him, for him, and to him.
But you need faith... that's the Ph D. and his diciples. He need people to make his ideas work.
Not through handicraft, for all i know only some wooden knives are made through handiwork, but through designing with paper and pen.
I do not wish you to be ignorant, and i speak to the scientist, to proclaim the authority of religion.
"Let there be..."

2. a firmament
3. land
