# General Information:
In verses 49 and 50, Stephen quotes from the prophet Isaiah. In the quotation, God is speaking about himself.
# Heaven is my throne ... the earth is the footstool for my feet
The prophet is comparing the greatness of God's presence to how impossible it is for man to build a place for God to rest on earth since the whole earth is nothing but a place for God to rest his feet.
# What kind of house can you build for me?
God asks this question to show how useless man's efforts are to take care of God. Alternate translation: "You can not build a house adequate enough for me!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
"You can not build a house adequate enough for me!"
# what is the place for my rest?
God asks this question to show man that he cannot provide God any rest. Alternate translation: "There is no place of rest good enough for me!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
"There is no place of rest good enough for me!"
