"You are saying that when the bible says the sun moves and the earth does not move, it is being figurative."

No, I am saying that you don't know Greek! (or Aramaic)

To call it "figurative" you'd have to know what exactly was being said in the first place in the original tounge.

So you are saying that translations of the Bible do not reflect the meaning of the bible?

The Bible refers to the "circle" of the Earth.
