Midrash su Daniele 5:24

The angels of the Holy One, blessed be He, are mighty, but they are not His equal. Proof of the might of His angels is evidenced by the fact that one of them stretched forth his hand from heaven and grasped Ezekiel by a lock of his head, as it is said: And the form of a hand was put forth, and I was taken by a lock of my head (Ezek. 8:3). We learn from another verse that the distance from heaven to earth is no more than the palm of an angel, as it is written: Then was the palm of the hand sent from before me, and this writing was inscribed (Dan. 5:24). This teaches us that there is no limit to His ministering angels; how much more so, then, is there no limit to the Holy One, blessed be He. Therefore it is written: Great is the Lord and highly to be praised, and His greatness is unsearchable (Ps. 145:3). And elsewhere it is said: Yea, My hand hath laid the foundations of the earth, and My right hand hath spread out the heavens, etc. (Isa. 48:13).
