What came first: space or time?

The Bible has from darkness there being light, in an area on a day.

Set theory and numbers would exist without a physical universe, it's
possible to conceive of the numbers without a requirement of a physical
universe.

Our equations model quite well our universe, it's safe to say: without
exception.

Our universe, a huge collection of galaxies, probably started in a Big
Bang. Yet, that doesn't explain the Universe being infinite and
eternal. What if the next infinitesimal probable event result distance
in a Many-Worlds-Universe is some infinite distance away, or long, long
ago?

I think the Big Bang is just among a neighborhood of universes within a
cosmos or cosmiverse.

If something caused the Universe to exist, what caused it to exist?
It's convenient to accept that it is or does.

Good question.

I'd like to hear more about it.

About the numbers, the numbers are a little simpler to synthesize,
including all of them.
