But what does it mean? It's obviously metaphor ... I don't say things in my heart ... I use it for pumping blood. One can understand this in many ways. And what is a "fool"? A stupid person ... or an intelligent person who assesses evidence and comes to the wrong conclustion. Seems like (or "as if") understanding the Bible is a monumental challenge ... and until one understands it personally, not with the "help" of a licensed intermediary, it doesn't seem possible to assess it's "goodness".
