Bible Note: Greetings TommyS, One case in point is Isaiah 40:22, "It is he who sits above the circle of the earth.." [ESV] Another case in point is Isaiah 55:9, which indicates that the heavens are always higher than the earth. If that is so, that the heavens are always higher than the earth, then that would lend credence to the conclusion that the heavens would, in effect, encompass the earth. And the heavens could only encompass the earth (without being below the earth) by surrounding the earth, which gives further support to the earth as being a spherical object. - Makarios |
