from isaiah, the reference to the "circle" of the earth.
So the writer of Isaiah 40:22 was an astronaut.
no, but according to the Bible, God is the author of the book.
Anyway, according to wt, the verse actually says compass ( tool to make circles ) and translated circle by wt. - Look up yourself the verse in the latest NWT and references.
In prov 8:27 the NWT translates the word circle as horizon.

from isaiah, the reference to the "circle" of the earth.
The author is dwelling above the the circle of the earth -according to the bible. The astronauts looking at the earth from the moon confirmed the authors point of view. The latest revision of the NWT now equates the word sphere to circle in the related verse. It also references Is 66:1. The wt says that the bible is actually saying sphere in the related verse. So that's that.

dimensions does a circle have? (Isaiah 40:22)The verse does not say that the earth is not a sphere and it does not say that the earth is not 3 dimensional. The verse is not incorrect to refer to the earth as a circle. From the earth, the moon looks like a circle. And so does the earth looking from the moon or from above the earth or from any angle or direction - same as the verse describes it without giving the 3 dimensional detail. The eye is not incorrect when it sees the moon as a circle from any perspective when it is actually 3 dimensional and the verse is not incorrect when it refers to the circle of the earth from the point of view of the author of the related verse.

"Proof ...."
Wanton ???
Even back then they knew N, S, E, W. ( 4 corners.)
Psalms 78: 26 He stirred up the east wind in the heavens And made a south wind blow by his power.
Rev 7: 1 After this I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding tight the four winds of the earth, so that no wind could blow on the earth or on the sea or on any tree.
Rev 20:9 And they advanced over the whole earth and encircled*the camp of the holy ones and the beloved city...
* compare with four corners.

Fisherman, the sun moves in response to the Earth's gravity around a common bari center, and the sun does move in response to every other planet, that is one way astronomers are detecting the hundreds of exoplanets, by the wobble of their suns.
Waton, very interesting and informative to read! Thanks.

Since you don't see what I am saying, let me put it to you this way: The sun does not actually rise and sets in relation to the earth.

the "circle" of the earth.
Depends on the perspective or point of view; the sun does not move in relation to the earth either.
