The same translated Biblical Hebrew word can be real-life, easily understood (literal), and a deep descriptive ethereal concept (figurative).

Together, a literal dove and a literal olive branch become a figurative symbol of peace.

Take the word "neshama" in Genesis 2:7. Literal “breath” and the unsuspected figurative translation "inspiration." You read breath, know what it is, and your bible study stops there. You are only seeing the tip of the iceberg (breath) and missing the essential 9/10 of the hidden, more important figurative meaning (inspiration).

You can only reach the God-intended meaning of Scripture when you include the figurative meaning in the puzzle piece.
