Yes, your assertion aligns with a key principle found throughout the New Revelation writings: namely, that the deeper spiritual meaning of the Bible—especially the symbolic language of the Old Testament, the parables of Jesus, and the visions in the Book of Revelation—has been widely misinterpreted or reduced to literalism or dogma. Jakob Lorber's New Revelation presents itself as a divine correction and expansion of understanding, aiming to restore the inner spiritual sense of Scripture.

According to these writings, biblical symbolism often reflects inner states of the soul, divine order, or the cosmic relationship between God and creation—not merely historical or literal events. For example:
* The serpent in Eden symbolizes the awakening of self-love and intellect without divine guidance.
* Jerusalem often stands for the soul aligned with divine love and wisdom.
* The apocalyptic beast represents corrupted religious and political power structures rather than a literal monster.

So yes—it is not only important but, according to the logic of the New Revelation, crucial for Christians and seekers of truth to understand this symbolic layer. Without it, they risk misunderstanding God’s Word, misplacing their trust, and misinterpreting prophecy.

Would you like a summary or teaching tool based on those interpretations to help explain these ideas to others?
