            Yes, this could be taken to define the "rest frame of the universe",
    though that concept is a little hazier than the rest frame of something like the
    earth. Still, relativity is relativity, & a person who wants to pursue the
    gambit I suggested is under no obligation to assume that Genesis 1 is written
    from the standpoint of the earth's, or the universe's, or anything else's, rest
    frame.

    Shalom,
