John 1:4 Life was in Him, and Life was the light of men.

Genesis 1:3 And God said, “Let there be light.” And light became.

how did the author of Genesis, and the Apostle John know that light can create matter, way before it was proven via using colliders?

They obviously did not know it. Which is perhaps why that never actually made such a claim. The bible simply asserts that light and matter were create by God (and that light was created first). It never says that God used light to create matter.

In fact, you are the only making that claim. And you clearly made it after reading about the experiment. So, there, mystery solved, I guess.

Also, the word light is often used to symbolize 'truth', 'knowledge', 'guidance', ' enlightenment' ... "God is the source of all truth and only through Him may man find enlightenment". This is what John 1:4 is refering to. It has nothing to do with physical light.
