What does Isaiah 55:9 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Isaiah 55:9
For as the heavens, are higher than the earth
Than which there cannot be conceived a greater distance: so
are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than
your
thoughts;
which may denote the heavenliness of the ways and thoughts of
God, the eternity and unsearchableness of them, and their
excellency and preciousness; as well as the very great distance
between his ways and thoughts and men's which this is designed to
illustrate.
