" literally "

Thems are called " Fundamentalist "

Some aspects and interpretations of some places of the bible could be taken literally when it is in it's proper context and other times as Jesus Christ sometimes would speak in parables taken as in a allegory.
The bible translates or rather the bible interprets the bible by it's self.
The book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ is a " revelation " of Jesus Christ with many images, symbolic meanings, types, so on and so on.
When Jesus said about being it's so hard to get a camel through a eye of a needle ? does he mean that we should take a camel and try that ? impossible... it was symbolic.

However, you put a needle through a camel, and you’re asking for trouble.

“Some aspects and interpretations of some places of the bible could be taken literally when it is in it’s proper context and other times as Jesus Christ sometimes would speak in parables taken as in a allegory.”

I get that. I’m attempting to clarify which is the flood, Noah’s tale, tower of Babel etc are. Are they allegories or historical accounts of what actually happened.

“The bible translates or rather the bible interprets the bible by it’s self.”

That’s convenient, and yet makes no sense.

No one ever tried to tell me the camel through the eye of the needle story was about a real miraculous camel who could squeeze through tight spaces.
