un-dẽr-nēth´ (תּחת, taḥath, “the bottom (as depressed)”): “Underneath are the everlasting arms” (). In these words Moses sums up the history of Israel and gives expression to his final thought about life and time and all things visible. Underneath all phenomena and all the chances and changes of life and time there is unchanging law, everlasting principle, an all-enfolding power, an all-embracing love.
