The problem with that is that everything had a deeper meaning. Nothing is to plain. That is the way the ancients did things they hid their deepest meanings because they could be twisted and manipulated by fools and other persons. This book is written in symbolism so by the way the ancients did you would have to look for deeper meanings all the way through it. Nothing here is simple and plain.
