against the lands
Physical ground, earth, or land; refers to soil or terrain, as well as to a specific territory, region, or country. In broader contexts, can denote the inhabited world or the entirety of the earth, in contrast to the heavens. Semantic range includes the literal earth’s surface, a portion of the earth as a land or country (often with reference to named territories, such as the land of Egypt or the land of Canaan), and, in more abstract senses, the general concept of the earth as the habitation or realm of humanity.
