He hath made the earth by his power,
he hath established the world by his
wisdom,
and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.

| Possible GEOMETRIC shapes of Universe |
"While you'll sometimes hear "Galaxy X is flying away from us at half the speed of light", what it really means is that "the distance between us and Galaxy X is increasing at half the speed of light." At the same time, as light travels through the universe, the wavelengths get stretched. This means that the cosmological redshift is really a measure of how much the universe has expanded since the light left the source. This is a subtle distinction, perhaps annoyingly so, but important." WS
Hmmmm....Does "stretched out the heavens" in Jer. 10:12 refer to RedShift? Just asking...
