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 โ€œfoundation(s) of the Earth/worldโ€ are the scriptural basis for how we can understand three important concepts in our unified theory of everything.

Foundation(s) of the Earth/World (context)

  1. the foundation of the world (Greek, singular)
    • first cause, conception
      • before God said let there be light,
      • the act of conception which begat God the Son.
  2. the foundation(s) of the earth (Hebrew)
    • gravitational singularity
      • the creative act of the 2nd day,
      • the inception of the core accretion model.
  3. the foundations of the world (Hebrew, plural)
    • the earth’s crust and mantle,
      • synonyms:
        • bottoms of the mountains
        • foundations of the hills
        • foundations of the mountains
