There are many occasions when reading through the threads here that I come across this sentence:
​
"Well that's obviously not to be taken literally - it was just a dream/song/interpretation that had at the time"
​
When reading the bible, what are the rules around what is to be taken literally, and what is not?
​
Are there any rules?
