Did he make an assumption about the distance of the sun?
Did he assume parallel rays?

Speaking to all:
How did Eratosthenes get the circumference of the earth?
The length of shadows.
Now for those who believe such a science:
Let us pretend the earth is a ball.
In 24 hours, let us take the distance between the earth and the sun to be constant (not changing) (change negligible).
But in that same 24 hours, no shadow, short shadow, long shadow, very long shadow could be obtained.
So, constant distance, changing shadows.
Inference:
You cannot obtain the distance of the sun from shadows.
Conclusion:
If the distance of the sun cannot be obtained, Eratosthenes is finished!
Let us return to our senses.
1 Kings , 2 Kings , 3 Kings, 4 Kings. (1st naming system).
1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings. (2nd naming system).
I used the first naming system.
Sun dial proves flat earth.
Just imagine a sun dial on a ball earth.
You need a very strong belief to believe in ball earth.
Check out 4 Kings 20:11 (Go and read it).
We always believed rightly until people started believing imaginations and fancies.
So few years before Christ, we had few fanciful school of thoughts.
Yes. It was backed by the oldest book of events at that time.
There were mathematicians that wrote against Galileo, and a notable one, a Dominican I think.
Everything in the past moves to the category of belief.
Then others will believe in God.
God loves innocent people.
People who are not innocent, he makes them innocent.
Then you can help me change the state of things here.
We must be on fire for truth.
If you love something, you will be happy to discuss it.
Christ and everything about Christ must be spread far and wide.
Luke 8:16
And no man lighting a candle doth cover it with a vessel, or put it under a bed; but setteth it upon a candlestick, that they that enter in, may see the light.
That is why you must think, and decide.
Truth and falsehood are opposed to each other.
The children of light VS the children of darkness.
Judeans vs Gentiles

Ball earth is total garbage. People are just fascinated about what they can’t understand, and become slaves to Google for numbers and figures.
Believe the creation account in the book of Genesis.
Believe God!
OK thanks.
I believe in God and everything written about Him.
Do you believe in Our Lord Jesus Christ?
Confess Him publicly or deny Him.
So why is this the wrong social network?
Which do you suggest?
Visit the site and watch some videos please.
@SayJess Well, it is deep for some people. But there are others whose parents teach them the truth from youth.
A verible terrible premise is that ‘waterfalls fall sideways’.
@SayJess please share with me. What do you find funny?
@SayJess Flat earth? Christmas? Joyful Mysteries?
No it is not a joke.
You should watch the latest video from that channel.
