And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth...

How do you know if this is literal or figurative?

"And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth..."


"How do you know if this is literal or figurative?"


When did the casting happen?? Could it be we have a history lesson planted, describing why the earth 'became' without out form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep, all those unnumbered days ago?
