You mean to say "steady state," not "solid state." There was a lively competition between the two theories. The astronomer Fred Hoyle was a prominent proponent. The "Big Bang" theory was proposed by Georges Lemaitre, a Belgian priest. It involved the assumption that the distance-red shift relationship was based on Doppler Shift, but the discoverer of that relationship, Edwin Hubble, argued against it on grounds of incompatibility with other astronomical observations. In more recent years, Halton Arp seems to have discovered a steady-state process of galaxy creation going on all around us.
Sorry about the typo. I'm getting old, and an occasional type escapes me when I read through before posting. I learned touch typing back in the late 60s, so I can type very fast. Sometimes the wrong words come out. They're spelled correctly, but they're the wrong words.
Since God created the universe, it could have been created to appear to us as bang or steady, whichever He wanted. So we may be allowed to discover the real process of the universe or not. I don't know yet.

It's an understandable unconscious substitution. Your meaning was clear to anyone who understood.
I invite you to read about Halton Arp's work. It opens a whole new door, based on observed facts. https://www.amazon.com/Seeing-Red-Redshifts-Cosmology-Academic/dp/0968368905
