No, doesn't say the earth's flat, just the sheet, but the writers of the bible certainly thought the earth was flat. Always talked about its four corners. Here's another couple...

Revelation 7:1 "After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree."

Revelation 20:8 "...and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth–Gog and Magog–to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore."

No surprise on the 2nd, they though that what was basically Russia/Asia extended to the corners of the earth. You'd think the heavenly creator would know "his" own earth was round.

I have a shirt, y'all have probably seen it. This one... http://www.evolvefish.com/fish/product595.html I love it!!!

Inconceivable! But it does not count for a hill of beans...
