RAB diyor ki, Gökler tahtım, Yeryüzü ayaklarımın taburesidir. Nerede benim için yapacağınız ev, Neresi dinleneceğim yer?

Bu ne anlama geliyor?

God is speaking through Isaiah and says that heaven is His throne and earth is His footstool. He questions why people think they can build a house for Him, as He doesn’t need a physical place to rest.

Imagine you have a really big playground that is your whole house. You wouldn’t need a special chair or a bed because your playground is everywhere you go. God is like that playground, and He doesn’t need a special house because He’s everywhere already.
