Bible Question:
Look at the context. As JVH0212 quoted "When the plain sense makes good sense, seek no other sense lest it be nonsense." But, can the context switch from literal to figurative and back ... or vice-versa. Is the whole Sermon on the Mount, figurative or literal? If there is a change, does not make sense - why? |
Bible Answer: Hi Steve, Usually it seems fairly clear whether it is literal or figurative. As far as the Sermon on the Mount, could you be more specific? |
