Apostolic Interpretation
<p>Reading the Bible seems simple enough — why is there so much controversy over how it should be read? Shouldn’t the meaning of words be taken at face value unless otherwise indicated?</p>
<p>This makes sense in all other contexts. We want our doctors to read medical forms literally, not metaphorically; we want our lawyers to read legal codes literally, not allegorically; we want our engineers and architects to read blueprints literally, not symbolically. The Bible is no different — Scriptures should be read literally for the same reason anything else is: because the function of words is to transmit a literal meaning.</p>
