Noah's ark seems to me not literal. I think the use of time in the Bible maybe could even just represent the concept of chronological events, and using the idea of "days" and "weeks" makes it easier to understand that concept.. but obviously not in a literal way. 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. Well that's how I see it. None of it may have happened and most likely never happened in a literal sense but they still point to another truth in another sense such as morally or symbolically. |
