The earliest Jewish belief, shared by the Greeks, was that the firmament was a solid dome. When the door of the dome was opened God's blessing could descend upon the earth, as one could also have a vision of the everlasting. This is serious ideology that far surpasses a concept that we are a part of Truman Burbank's story (played by Jim Carrey) in the 1998 movie The Truman Show, whose tagline was "all the world's a stage." In Judaism the world is a stage but not one of entertainment and spoof for the director is God himself.
The world was played out on the stage of Bethlehem, as it is in all villages and hamlets, cities and suburbs, across the globe.
