'Earth' in the Bible

But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" -- he said to the paralytic --

He said, "The Kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,

For the earth bears fruit: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.

It's like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,

His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

Then he will send out his angels, and will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the sky.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
