“For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?”
For ask now of the days that are past, which were before you, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and from the one end of heaven to the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing, or hath any such thing been heard like it -- the rhetorical question appeals to history: has any nation witnessed what Israel has? The scope is cosmic ('from the one end of heaven to the other'). Israel's election is historically unparalleled.
