Their language was not as abstract as ours, so they spoke in very direct literal words, pulled from their surroundings, to express psychological things.
But then we read about their psychological things with our abstract language and interpret them literally, big mistake.
For example, they used words like "waters" to mean the subconscious, before a time when they had a specific word for subconscious that couldn't be confused with actual water. And then take it one step further, actually believing that a man named Jesus actually walked on water. It all seems to be metaphorical, and it is, but only to us, because of how the languages have evolved. Plato was into making analogies.
Some 2000 years ago, the Roman architect-engineer Vitruvius used an analogy to figure out how to build an excellent theatre. "As in the case of the waves formed in the water, so it is in the case of the voice," the architect wrote.
Voices are formed in the waves of subconscious that appear and disappear, briefly begging for your attention to allow them to rise to the conscious level.
One might say that the analogy of Jesus walking on water represents "being above the subconscious" (enlightened). He sits on the throne, as the King of his Church (mind). *Jesus is King."

It is about how consciousness evolves and our understandings change, leaving broken ways in the past.
Here is a funny thing.
You have the Tetragrammaton "YHVH", which is said to be the four letter name of God. It is pronounced many ways like Yaweh or Jehova.
Then in relation to the Tetragrammaton you have Metatron which states "my name is in him". The word Metatron can be found within the word Tetragrammaton.
Now maybe you know of a dude named Osiris. Have you also heard of Isis? My name is in him. The word Isis can be found within the word Osiris.
Tetragrammaton and Osiris represent God. Metatron and Isis represent Jesus. Isis is another way to pronounce Jesus. Metatron means Mithra's Throne. How many letters in the word Isis? Four. How many in King? Four. Jesus is King.
Yeah, here's why I think that is.
