It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:

it is he that sitteth. or, Him that sitteth Isa 19:1 66:1 Ps 2:4 29:10 68:33

the inhabitants Isa 40:15,17 Nu 13:33

stretcheth Isa 42:5 44:24 51:13 Job 9:8 37:18 38:4-9 Ps 102:25,26 104:2 Jer 10:12 Zec 12:1 Heb 1:10-12

as a curtain. Or, as a thin veil, as Bp. Lowth renders: which he illustrates by the following passage from Dr. Shaw. It is usual in the summer season, and upon all occasions when a large company is to be received, to have the court sheltered from heat or inclemency of the weather by a velum, umbrella, or veil, as I shall call it; which, being expanded on ropes from one end of the parapet to the other, may be folded or unfolded at pleasure. The Psalmist seems to allude to some covering of this kind, in that beautiful expression of spreading out the heavens as a curtain.
