The "footstool" verses (Isaiah 66:1) are metaphorical — God is sovereign. If "earth is my footstool" is literal, then "heaven is my throne" must be literal too (but no flat-earther takes it that way). Isaiah 40:12 says God measured waters in "the hollow of his hand" — also obviously metaphorical. 1 Kings 8:27: even the highest heavens cannot contain God.
Footstool verses — metaphor for sovereignty
Isaiah 66:1 is about God's sovereignty, not cosmology. If taken literally: God has physical feet, heaven is chair-shaped, and God's hand spans the heavens (Isaiah 40:12). 1 Kings 8:27 explicitly says heaven can't contain God. The footstool image is metaphorical — God rules over all creation.
