Nope.

Yet you said in post 587: "There is no verse that specifically states that the earth is flat." Now you say that the Book of Job does. The word "earth" occurs 44 times in Job, and not one of those times says anything about the shape of the earth. The words, "He (God) hangs the earth upon nothing" (Job 26:7) do fit well with a globe earth. I wonder which part of the book of Job you are thinking of that says the earth is flat.

This is not what you said, you said.

This is what you said & the post which I replied too.

This is what you said.

But if you look at the full post, which you did quote, it ended, "I wonder which part of the book of Job you are thinking of that says the earth is flat."

This is what you said.

And he is correct.

It is you who has said , "Job said that the earth is like an image taking shape under clay. Here is a picture of a round seal which has produced a round image. Therefore, Job does mention the shape of the earth; he says the shape of the earth is round."

Read it again. Where does Job say"the earth is round; like when someone has a round seal and stamps an image"?
I think you'll find that it's not there and this is only your interpretation of what is poetic language anyway.

But you did write this, 'The word "earth" occurs 44 times in Job, and not one of those times says anything about the shape of the earth.'

And this is what I was replying too.

And I was replying to what you claimed that I had not asked you where in the book of Job we are told that the earth is a flat disc. You had written: "This is not what you said."

Therefore, Job does mention the shape of the earth; he says the shape of the earth is round."

The earth is round as in circular.

Job 38:14
The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its hills stand out like the folds of a garment.

Notice the upturned edge ?

Sorry David, I didn't read all your post like I should have.

Why don't you read my posts too?

You didn't take any notice of what I said, though.

You tell us to notice the upturned edge. However, by no means all seals have upturned edges. Here is another Scottish one, like yours, but with no upturned edge:

And a seal can be placed on a three-dimensional parcel. The fact that God's word likens the earth to a seal does not mean that it has to be flat.

Thank you. I am glad we have managed to sort that out between us. I assure you I wasn't meaning to be unpleasant - I hope I never would.

Well mine does

 

[David Lamb]

Yes, I know, but as not all seals do, how do you know whether the seal mentioned in Job had a raised edge?

Or was I, your such a wonderful guy I'd hate for any animosity to come between us over F/E.

B/c I reckon this is the kind of seal that would have been used in Job's day.

Job doesn't describe the earth as round, he describes it as a seal which is round.
