Isaiah 40:22IMO:
Job 26:7, Hebrew חוג = "horizon." The ancients saw ships disappear over the horizon. That does not equate to a circular planet earth.
It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:
my bad! It was isaiah.

I will stick with the experts.
The ancients did not understand the world as we do, but God did and declared it in His Word.
