Psalm 104:5 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 104:5

Who laid the foundations of the earth
Or "founded the earth upon its bases" F12; which some take to be the waters, according to ( Psalms 24:2 ) , others the centre of gravity in it; others the mountains; others the circumambient air, by which it is poised; rather the almighty power of God, by which it subsists; this is the work of Christ the Almighty; see ( Hebrews 1:3 Hebrews 1:10 ) .

That it should not be removed for ever:
for though it may be shaken by earthquakes, yet not removed; nor will it be until the dissolution of all things, when it shall flee away before the face of the Judge, and a new earth shall succeed, ( Revelation 20:11 ) ( 21:1 ) .

Psalm 104:5 In-Context

3 der seine Obergemächer bälkt in den Wassern, der Wolken macht zu seinem Gefährt, der da einherzieht auf den Fittichen des Windes;
4 der seine Engel zu Winden macht, seine Diener zu flammendem Feuer.
5 Er hat die Erde gegrĂĽndet auf ihre Grundfesten; sie wird nicht wanken immer und ewiglich.
6 Mit der Tiefe hattest du sie bedeckt wie mit einem Gewande; die Wasser standen ĂĽber den Bergen.
7 Vor deinem Schelten flohen sie, vor der Stimme deines Donners eilten sie hinweg-
