Or the earth is a round disk, or it is a square... there actually is no definitive description of the earth as a sphere in the Bible. The Flat Earth Society recognizes this.

Did you read the Bible verse I quoted? The Hebrew word chug (translated “circle” in most translations except for the ISV, which renders it “disk”; the Douay version renders it “globe”) can and does refer to a sphere.

The Douay–Rheims Bible reads...

It is he that sitteth upon the globe of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as locusts: he that stretcheth out the heavens as nothing, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in. (Isaiah 40:22)
