Interpretation of Scripture - Christian Poem

Some Bible verses only have one logical literal interpretation.
But some verses may have both a literal and a spiritual application.

For example, the parable of the seed has an obvious simple interpretation.
But Jesus also provided another more sophisticated spiritual explanation.

When reading scripture it is good to look for a deeper spiritual revelation.
But we should not ignore the simple truth that requires no clarification.
