Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Tell Me, if you have understanding.
Who fixed its measurements? Surely you know!
Or who stretched a measuring line across it?
On what were its foundations set,
or who laid its cornerstone,
while the morning stars sang together
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
God speaking to Job testifies to us that the morning stars (angels as we know them) rejoiced as God laid the foundations of the earth. This entire realm in which we live; that is, from the furthest reaches of our universe to the smallest microscopic atomic make up of everything that exists in this physical realm which God created as a place for man to live, was seen by the angels as God worked to build it all for us. As I understand the Scriptures, the angelic realm, which resides in the heavenly realm, existed before God said, "Let there be light!" The angelic realm was not created at the same time as our physical realm in which man lives.
