AnswerWhen the Bible makes sense literally, it can be explained literally. Whenever it does not make sense literally, it can be explained allegorically, symbolically or spiritually. It depends on your interpretation of the Bible and how important you believe it is to project the Bible as an inerrant history.Many, for example, explain the creation stories symbolically. Others may explain the passage, where Jesus cursed the fig tree for not bearing fruit out of season, as being an allegory.
