4 Ezra - The Incredible Majesty of God

In this portion of Chapter six, we find doctrine on the incredible majesty of the creator God.  Once again, we find the same doctrinal content in the Bible, which supports the teachings in this ancient Jewish text.  The ancient cosmology is stated again, which declares the opposite of what modern man has been taught.  We find an ancient belief in a earth with foundations that is covered with the heavens like a curtain or tent. There is a creator God looking down on the earth dwellers because He sits at the very circle enclosing the land.  There are many Biblical scriptures that support this idea also.  The psalmist declares this marvelous majesty and places proper reverence and worship in perspective.  The begining of wisdom is fear of the Lord.
