What the "gap theory", aka pre-Adamic creation postulates is that Genesis 1:1 refers to a complete creation, not a submerged wasteland. The theory states that this first creation declined to a point where it became formless and empty. This explains the apparent age of the earth and the fossil record.
Genesis 1:2 onward is the account of the restoration of the earth and its inhabitants, including humanity. There are also parallels with the salvation of man. The Holy Spirit hovered over the destroyed earth. He is there when the gospel is preached to bring conviction to sinners. The first requirement for salvation is light. The entrance of God's word brings light. God spoke and it was so. It is the preaching of God's word that saves. And so on.

Does this sound like to you the Passover is not at the proper time?
Matthew 24:26 When Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said to his disciples, 2 “You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of man will be delivered up to be crucified.”
But on the night the was arrested Yeshua kept coming back to his disciples asking them to watch! Do you know why? Do you think the disciples knew he was going to be arrested that night.?------ No--Yeshua was fullfilling scripture!
Mat 12: 42 It was a night of watching by the Lord, to bring them out of the land of Egypt; so this same night is a night of watching kept to the Lord by all the people of Israel throughout their generations.
This scripture was to be fulfilled by every generation. Another reason why we know the Passover was also carried out at the proper time. Every jew was to fulfilled this ordinance
