How do we know that we didn't make it up and use free-for-all allegory?
- 1. Symbols will be the same meaning as everywhere else they are used.
- 2. The meaning derived is validated in other locations within the text.
- 3. The meaning fits a recapitulation of an idea forming a prophetic pattern as the core of doctrine.
- 4. Outside authorities are not required.
- 5. The meaning participates in a picture of Christ with the cross and the bride at the core.
- 6. Others can validate it even though they could not solve it.
- 7. The formation of words within the section will confirm the meaning.
1. Symbols the same everywhere
- You don't get to decide when it is a symbol and when it is not. If it is a symbol in one place, every place it is, it is a symbol.
