Actually, the Bible describes the earth exactly that way.
I find it funny that as organized religion adapts to the scientific view, people not only stop believing the Biblical description of the earth, they even deny that the Bible describes it that way.
According to the Bible, the earth is flat, it is at the center of everything that exists, the sky is a "firmament" which seems to be a kind of curtain upon which all of the stars and sun are attached, water surrounds the earth and firmament, and animals (consisting of carbon compounds) all popped fully formed out of dirt (consisting of silicates) ~6,000 years ago. Scientific observation supports none of that.

Blood is necessary for life. The life is in the blood.
Lev 17:10-12 `And any man from the house of Israel, or from the aliens who sojourn among them, who eats any blood, I will set My face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from among his people. `For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood by reason of the life that makes atonement.’ “Therefore I said to the sons of Israel, `No person among you may eat blood, nor may any alien who sojourns among you eat blood.’
Earth is round. Could also refer to the orbit of the earth as seen from space. Also, in those verses, the expansion of the universe.
Isa 40:22 It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.
Job 9:5,8 ”It is God who removes the mountains, they know not how, When He overturns them in His anger; 8.Who alone stretches out the heavens And tramples down the waves of the sea;
All things are being held together; gravitation, strong and weak nuclear forces, magnetism.
Col 1:15-17 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
