No one but Christ had the right to open the
'little book' which contained the title-deed
to the earth.

To set foot upon the earth was the way to
take possession in the Old Testament.

God told Israel when they went into the
land of Canaan, "every place that the soles
of your feet shall tread shall be your".
Deuteronomy 11:24

He said the same thing to Joshua in his
book Joshua 1:3.

Now Christ will take possession, as He
stands on the earth and sea.
