No. I mean that something that's accurate and literally true wouldn't
need interpretation to be understood properly. The very fact that it
requires interpretation (and that it's open up to it) is contradictory
to the claim that it's literal.

(And it being open up to interpretation really can be seen, given that
there are over 30 thousand denominations of Christianity, all of them
varying interpretations, some of them with wildly varying ones, even on
core issues.)
