Antarctica, does it end?

The ice wall that surrounds our earth; known as the continent of Antarctica extends the entire 'circumference' of our known land mass called earth. God describes this vast continent in Job 38.22-23;

"Hast thou entered the treasuries of the snow, or hast thou seen the treasuries of the hail, Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, Against the day of battle and war?"

The coming "Day of battle and war" is described in Revelation 16.21;

"And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great."

The weight of a single talent is generally reckoned to be around 30 kg!

Job lived in "the land of Uz" Job 1.1. This land is to the east of Israel, and the book of Job is considered by scholars to be the oldest book in the Bible. The  setting is a semi desert region which is certainly not well known for snow and ice, especially in the quantities recorded in the aforementioned Scriptures!  There are more references to snow and ice in Job than any other in God's Book.

It is my belief that God gave Job an end times prophecy, one that the biblical geocentric position shines much needed light upon.This end-times hail storm is described as "exceeding great", and given the context of these words, will be world wide in scope.
*I believe that after much of the snow and ice has been dumped on the inhabited earth as prophesied in Rev. 16.21 we will see an increased land mass fit for human inhabitation. The coming millennial reign of Christ on earth will see an exponentially increased population-explosion  on earth, for men will live up to a 1000 years old as they did in the first 1000 years, and we will see the ultimate fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham; "I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore." Genesis 22.17.

Because I believe that the continent known as Antarctica is a land mass which encircles the earth, and is generally agreed by all to be a rather inhospitable region, then if  the above promise to Abraham is to come true (as it surely will!) then the millennial earth as described in Isaiah 11 & 65, will need to increase in size. Is it not true that the world's ungodly green movements support birth control (abortion)? for they are worried that the earth's land mass will not support the increasing population explosion.

*There is however, water "above the firmament", Genesis 1.7,and according to  Ezekiel 1.22; there is "the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above." (over the heads of the "living creatures"). This "terrible crystal" in the RV margin is rendered ice, which would be above the firmament. The azure sky we see on a cloudless day, may well be this ice! So God is not short of ice when the prophecy of Rev.16.21 takes place!
