Baruch 3:24

A church father on this verse
“The elements have been given to all in common, the ornaments of the world are open equally to the rich and the poor. Are not the faces of the heavens, adorned with shining stars, more beautiful than the most precious gold-leaf ceilings of luxurious houses? Are the riches of the rich wider than the expanses of the eart…”

In context

22It hath not been heard of in Canaan, neither hath it been seen in Teman.

23The Hagarites that seek wisdom upon earth, the merchants of Merran and of Teman, the authors of fables, and searchers out of understanding; none of these have known the way of wisdom, or remembered her paths.

— Baruch 3:24 —

25Great, and hath none end; high, and unmeasurable.

26There were the giants famous from the beginning, that were of so great stature, and so expert in war.
