I say go to the scriptures, God has not indorsed any Bible.
As far as the believing the earth was flat.....round can be flat, the earth is shaped as a globe.
Why did the Jews and Christians believe that the world was flat and the sun and moon and stars moved around it? Why did they believe the world was on a fixed foundation? And why did sailors worry about sailing off the end of the world?
It wasn’t just the Jews and Christians; it was a common belief of the time period. And you will see a lot of references to “ the ends of the world and ends of the earth” Means no thing to us we know the planet is round but, back then it was a fear…..of falling off the ends of the world….particularly for sailors.
According to these scriptures the earth has a foundation….and it was set on pillars that could be shaken but the earth could not move and the sun and moon moved around it….and if an object was tall enough it could be seen from the four corners of the earth because the earth was flat….and yes flat but no round, it had corners….and the sun and moon can stop traveling around the flat earth….and heaven has windows.

Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stopped in the midst of heaven and did not hurry to set for about a whole day……
It would be that the earth stopped rotating not the sun and moon stopping.
