Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.
The one who laid the foundations of the earth is God, the great Jehovah. He did this as Creator in six days, clothing the whole world in beauty, filling it with things useful to man, and creating all the wonders of the land and of the sea. The work was complete and perfect, worthy of its divine Author, and He looked upon it with satisfaction, resting on the seventh day not from weariness but well pleased with the fruits of His wisdom and goodness and the manifestations of His glory.
He established the earth so that it would remain and not be moved forever. He set limits for the waters, bounding them so they would not cover the earth again. The verse reveals God's power in creation. That creation belongs to the authentic account of creation found in the Bible, a truth made known in Scripture.
