Keep in mind the Heisenberg uncertainty principle as you do otherwise any definition will be trivially easy to disprove if it ignores it. Also when you define nothing to a tangible degree, since you obviously think there is a god that created the cosmos, tell us where it is? If it is within the sphere of what you define as nothing, then there is something there and it isn't a nothing. If god is outside your nothing sphere, then it is nothing either since you just defined something else which means your nothing is again something. To put it quite concisely, nothing isn't stable. Sort of like your personality is right now as you experience the largest and most painful cognitive dissonance you ever have.
First, you are the one making the claim that something came from nothing, and brought up a book about it that you've apparently read and deeply understand, so you should be the one defining it. Tell me what you mean by something coming from nothing?
I don't believe that there is any such thing as "nothing". I believe that God is eternal and has always existed, therefore there has always been something.
Psalm 19:1-2
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
