Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 51:15. He hath made the earth by his power — The omnipotence of God is particularly manifested in the works of creation.
He hath established the world by his wisdom — The omniscience of God is particularly seen in the government of תבל tebel, the inhabited surface of the globe. What a profusion of wisdom and skill is apparent in that wondrous system of providence by which he governs and provides for every living thing.
And hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding. — Deep thought, comprehensive design, and consummate skill are especially seen in the formation, magnitudes, distances, revolutions, and various affections of the heavenly bodies.
