Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.

Some important uses of the number four
Poster showing uses of the number four, and using four colors, four typefaces, four corners and four sides.
There are four freedoms in the First Amendment to the US Constitution; four fundamental forces, or interactions, holding the universe, you and me, and atoms and molecules together; four sides and four corners in many of the basic building blocks of buildings; four limbs in vertebrate animals, and, conventionally, four directions. There are more uses of four, or groups of four, that I have not thought of, no doubt.
Thanks for looking! I expect to post more of these posters in the future.

And in music, 4/4 time is also known as common time and is often indicated with a meter signature of C. Indeed, most music, at least in the West, is in 4/4.
You are right, unknown, whoever you are.
Thank you.
