How do we know biblical figures of speech are true?

Answered in 1 source

Biblical figures of speech convey profound theological truths and are validated through their impact and consistency across scripture.

The use of figures of speech in the Bible is integral to its communicative power and reliability. Each figure, whether it be epizeuxis or anadiplosis, serves to emphasize and clarify key messages within the text, ultimately drawing believers into a deeper understanding of God’s character and deeds. Passages employing these figures illustrate crucial doctrines, such as the Trinity or God's sovereignty, that have been recognized by the historic church as foundational truths. Moreover, their presence throughout scripture reinforces their significance and reliability as divinely inspired communication.
