The Earth was not created without form and void, It became void and without form and in my understanding this came to pass in what is called the Biblical first earth age, this was the time before the creation of Adam and the creation story we have in the book of Genesis (The second Biblical Earth age).
Void means Completely empty, The Father did not Create the world Void, Isaiah 45:18, For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, He created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: God created the World complete; Not Void, to be Inhabited by his children as it was in the first biblical earth age.
(Big G = God The Father; did destroy completely the 1st earth age in this (time of old) do to Lucifer's rebellion when a third of God's angelic sons (ben-elohim) began to follow Lucifer and trespass against God's Dominion. but are not yet cast into hell and are present at the second creation of God which was Adam in the beginning of the second earth age, Isaiah 14:12-14 how art thou fallen from heaven, O lucifer son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! #13 for thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: #14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
There are many hints to this time before Adam throughout our Bible, however none are so apparent as the book of Job, I believe that the book of job belongs to this first biblical earth age,
#1. Lucifer (Satan) is able to traverse between the heaven and the earth at will Job 1:6, now there was a day when the sons of god (ben-elohim) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them. Lucifer (Satan) was cast out of heaven at the close of the first biblical earth age, Revelation 12:7-9, And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels #8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. #9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
#2. God states that Job was created alongside the behemoth Job 40:15, Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; He eateth grass as an ox. I believe this behemoth to be an extinct Dinosaur, Job 40:17, He moveth his tail like a cedar:.
The first biblical earth age was destroyed by the first flood, not the flood of Noah in the second biblical earth age and not a rock from space, The flood that erased all things on the earth when the heavens and earth became of old, Second Peter 3:5-7, #5 For this they are willingly ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water #6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water perished: #7 But the heavens and the earth which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
In the day the Lord Made the earth empty (void) ; this was at the end of the first biblical earth age, he utterly destroyed all things from the face of an existent earth: Jeremiah 4:23-26, I beheld the Earth, and lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. #24 I beheld the mountains, and lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. #25 I beheld, and lo,there was no Man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. #26 I beheld, and lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the Lord, and by his fierce anger.
In the verses above there is a total emptiness; the world was void of man as well at this time There was no man (Noah) to build an Arc no birds to send forth no trees for The dove to find an olive leaf, Genesis 8:11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and lo in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth, completely Void of creation of any kind, The verses above are speaking of the time of old and when the Lord made the world to become utterly Void.
