Ver. 10. Which hath foundations] Heaven hath a foundation, earth hath none; but is hanged upon nothing, as Job speaketh. Hence things are said to be on earth, but in heaven.
Whose builder and maker] Gr. Whose cunning artificer and public workman. God hath bestowed a great deal of skill and workmanship upon the third heaven.
