Bible Note: Dear Steve, This is a nice sentiment. However, the Bible is not entirely allegorical. Therefore, in a sound exegesis of the Word, we must not make things have symbolic meanings unless the Scripture itself gives us that authority. The interpreter does not have that authority. See post #170341. See also the thread starting in post #156916 on principles for the proper interpretation of the Scriptures. In Him, Doc |
