Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements--surel...y you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? On what were its bases sunk, or who laid its cornerstone when the morning stars sang together and all the heavenly beings shouted for joy?LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
