Sun, moon and stars are created to rule. Abram is told that his children will be like stars. That means, they will be raised up to rule. Abram’s children are kings.
We can be more specific. Sun, moon, and stars are created to rule day and night, to be the governors of time. Abram’s children are not lords generally but specifically time lords.
Hence biblical time runs with the seed of Abram. Hence Jesus, Abram’s seed, marks a new beginning on our calendars. Hence Christian time has come to rule much of the world. Because Abram is the father of a nation of time lords.
