In the Creation, though the building be large and vast, yet with what ease did he set it up? He did not blow or sweat, no nor so much as stir at his Work. The whole World consisteth of the celestial and terrestrial Globe, and both were the product of his Word: For the Heavens, Psal. 33.6. By the word of the Lord the Heavens were made, and all the Host thereof by the breath of his Mouth. It was but a word, a breath, that produced that vast circumference of the Heavens, and all those great Luminaries there: So for the Earth, He spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast, verse 9. He only spake the word, and even non-entities obeyed, and became Beings. Therefore in the story of the Creation, Gen. 1. we find in every Days-work, God only commanding, and and immediately all things concurring, verse 3, 9, 12.
