The Bible is allegorical where it SAYS it’s allegorical, and literal where it SAYS it’s literal.

Waiting for the King James crowd to come on the thread and say the KJV is the only divinely authorized version and that each word should be interpreted literally.

I've had such folks tell me that all of Jesus parables had to have been about real, historic people, or He would have been lying.

The Sodom and Gomorrah story should be interpreted literally. If it were, maybe the sodomites would still be in the closet.
