The phrase "let there be light" (Genesis 1:3) is the delivery of God's light to the Earth. He creates the Sun and Moon and stars in Genesis 1:14 to 1:18 -- remember that The Bible is based on a geocentric theory of the universe.
Jewish answer
The light created on the first day was not the same as that of the sun. Rather, it was light that God created before the sun, and which emanated from a point in space without any physical source; like what we might term a "white hole."
