Foundations in Context

Of old You laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
(Psalms 102:25) NKJV

Broadly speaking there are three contexts in which “foundation(s) of the Earth/world” are the scriptural basis for how we can understand three important concepts in our unified theory of everything.

“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements—surely 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 sons of God shouted for joy?
(Job 38:4-7) ESV

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) found gravity in the context of the second day of creation, by which God establishes a space between the waters above and the waters below the firmament.

The Point of the Compass

a drawing compass and the creation of gravity on the second day

Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth, before he had made the earth with its fields, or the first of the dust of the world. When he established the heavens, I was there; when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,
(Proverbs 8:25-27) ESV

We think of Earth as down and the sky as up. Heaven above and hell below. Whatever happened on the second day has to allow for the eventual formation of heaven and hell. These aren’t spiritual concepts.

To Sink, Sink Down

“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements—surely 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 sons of God shouted for joy?
(Job 38:4-7) ESV

The concept of sinking down occurs in the creation narrative when God laid the foundations of the earth. The meaning of this phrase is congruent with the creation of a gravitational singularity on the second day.
