So the next time I am watching TV and some commentator talks about the 4 corners of the earth I can presume he believes the earth is flat and possible a rectangle or a square?
Allegorical language in the Bible is not meant to be taken literally. If I used your reasoning I would believe God is a chicken.
Ruth 2:12
12 May the LORD reward your work, and your wages be full from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to seek refuge."
NAS
Ps 91:4
4 He will cover you with His pinions,
And under His wings you may seek refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.
NAS
Or maybe a castle, a rock, or a piece of armor I can hide behind:
2 Sam 22:2-3
"The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;
3 My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge;
My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge;
NAS
