[Nehem. 9.6. See Gen. 1. Job 38.4, &c. Psal. 104.5, &c. and 136.5, &c. Thus saith the Lord thy Redeemer, and he that formed thee from the Womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things, that stretcheth forth the Heavens alone, that spreadeth abroad the Earth by my self, Isa. 44.24. Act. 4.24. & 14.15. & 17.24. Rev. 10.6. Thus saith God the Lord, he that created the Heavens, and stretched them out, he that spread forth the Earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the People upon it, and Spirit to them that walk therein, Isa. 42.5. See Isa. 45.12, 18. Mark 10.6.]
