What are 'the pillars of the earth'

3When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; (KJV)
1The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. (KJV)
7But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:

The Gleason's map of 1892, revered by the “flat earth” community as a true representation of Earth, is a unique and rare world projection. This post aims to investigate the background of the map's creators, Alexander Gleason and J.S. Christopher, and uncover the fascinating story behind the map's creation.

Some social media users are saying that Alexander Gleason's 19th Century “New Standard Map of the World” is proof that the earth is flat and that Antarctica is not a continent but an ice ring that circles the earth's edges. They are wrong. The earth is not flat. The map has been misinterpreted.
One 'official' source debunking the map. You can decide for yourself if their view is true.
