I think we can be quite certain that these are the pillars of the earth that the Hebrews were talking about:

It's by far the most parsimonious interpretation that requires the least amount of eisegesis.

I think there are different versions of this type of illustration. But all of them are sort of interesting. I am not sure when were they made. But I guess it is probably be post Greek or post Roman. Interpretation changes with time (knowledge). I don't think the earlier one is necessary more true or more valuable than later one. Thousand years later, people would think my understanding on the same Bible verse is pretty primitive.
