No they are not symbolic, they are real....it is made even harder because human nature tends to stick to what it knows.........
(if it's" witnesses" they must be human,)....the treaty of Waitangi, is a witness to the occupation of New Zealand.
the declaration of Independence,...we weren't there to witness it but we have the signed document as a witness that it happened
and I AM neither Catholic nor 7 day Adventist.
I believe Jesus's death and sacrifice saves me but.... ..I AM not Lutheran
I believe in baptism by submersion....................................I AM not Baptist.
I believe in evangelising and spreading the word.......I AM not Mormon
I believe in the Saturday Sabbath........................................I AM not SDA.
I believe in the Holy Trinity......................................................I AM not Catholic.
I'm just like you ?....but I ask the Lord "specifically" to lead my walk....least I lean into my own understanding

"Metaphor" I think that is the word I have been looking for these past few days concerning this topic
that's what the book of Revelations is, Metaphoric: a thing regarded as representative or symbolic of something else.
I had to look it up, once it hit me, to make sure it was what I was meaning...double check...lol

Remember brother's and sister's, ...the Bible is one big story, narrative, picture,.... that is written by other stories within it.
the main characters are GOD, Jesus, Holy Spirit,.....and Lucifer.
when we read the Bible it must be as a whole...we have "In the beginning" and it starts there....We learn the character of GOD, the sacrifice of our saviour, & the Intercession of the Holy Spirit to counter....Lucifer....through so many of those stories contained in the Bible,
All the information we gather from reading the Bible, builds one big picture, that culminates in the separation of the saved from the dammed.
One big jigsaw puzzle who's pieces we must never forget where we placed, & as that puzzle fill's up, we should get a brighter, clearer understanding of what it is to be a child of the LORD, & the sacrifices we must take to achieve his GRACE.

A simile is like making a comparison, 1[As a heart of a whale] 2 a metaphor is when you express something is like something else poetically.3 you may use an analogy to express a point of view and you give an example of how something is like something eles. like the flow of water is like amps is flow of electricity.4 and a parable is a story that can be interpreted usually to give moral or ethic meaning
