Who determines what is to be taken literally or metaphorically? You? I? The Pope? The Rabbi's? To me, it seems as if you're choosing what to take literal, and what to take as symbolic. While I definitely agree that certain things are not literal, I question how you come to the conclusion. Jews have the Oral law that was given with the Torah at Sinai by Moshe. My Arabic is mediocre at best - I would never claim to be an expert on that.
