If these events that are described in the scriptures are not meant to be taken as events that actually occurred in reality, how are we to know that other parts of the Bible are similarly not meant to be taken as events that actually occurred in reality?

Perhaps Jesus of Nazareth's existence was never meant to be taken as an event that occurred in reality. Perhaps it was meant as a tale of inspiration intended to guide moral behavior.

Except if He never walked and preached in the Holy Land how would anyone have convinced folks in the decades after His death they did in fact see and hear Him? Debate about His divinity is a whole other story.

We who are alive today do not know that he convinced anybody of anything. We only know that various people claimed that he had walked and preached. Same as with Moses and his tablets. Same as with the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) the Holy Quran. Same as with Joseph Smith and his Revelation.
