well a sphere does not have corners does it
Isa 11:12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.

yet attempt to confuse albeit with sophistry, so natural to the secular mind.
kanaph - is the Hebrew word in concern here Isaiah 11:12, probably a bit advanced for your level so I can understand why you might make this error, You probably havn't heard of a 'quadrapoint', that's a diambiguation, try this - in English; 'four corners of the earth' means to cover an area entirely, it dosen't actually mean four pointed corners.
You know how compasses have a quadrapoint - North, South, East, West. Like today in English and for many hundreds of years the expression was used in English - 'four corners of the globe', which in a literal sense would be a oxymoron, and would confuse someone of limited ability in the English language or simple minded folk.
But getting back to the Hebrew, kanaph - which is figurative, I don't know if you can understand these words but you can look them up later in the Dictionary, and the word figuratively kanaph has to do with 'deliverence' by bearance on wings by God, Ex 19:4, Deut. 32:11, and you can shelter under these wings as well Ps. 17:8, Ruth 2:12, Ps.36:7. See when God spread out His wings to gather and asemble what is His, it covers every direction, so the edges of the wing would cover all the earth, because He is God. Note no verbal prototype for the noun is known; the verbal usage which exists has denominative meanings; 'hide', 'enclose', 'assemble'.
Rev 7:1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
