Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand and marked off the heavens with a span, enclosed the dust of the earth in a measure and weighed the mountains in scales and the hills in a balance? -Isaiah 40:12 ESV
40:12-14 God alone established the creation. He is uniquely powerful and wise, so he is worthy of his people’s trust (cf. Job 38-41; Rom. 11:34). a span (Hb. zeret). The distance between the ends of the thumb and the little finger when the hand is fully extended.
