Foundation

A foundation signifies truth on which heaven, the church, and its doctrines are founded.

⁴ "Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if you have understanding.

⁵ Who determined its measures, if you know? Or who stretched the line on it?

⁶ Whereupon were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone,

⁷ when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
