“Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.”
The virtues arise from the earth: "Faithfulness will spring up from the ground, and righteousness will look down from the sky." The metaphor of virtues sprouting from earth and descending from heaven suggests a reunion of heaven and earth. Divine righteousness (from heaven) meets human faithfulness (from earth).
