Sorry, but no.
God speaks, man misinterprets.
The Bible has been used to excuse cults that have sex with children, human sacrifice, and all manner of deeds. It has been misinterpreted by entire churches and in my view an entire era, the dark ages.
It is the single best selling book every year, it has been studied more than all other books and laws combined, is the basis of both western justice systems, British and Napoleonic, and the best resource known to man in the studies of anthropology.
And, it is the single most disputed book in the history of the known universe. There are at least 25 ideological pathways, with sub pathways and merged pathways. Each passage has been studied and analyzed again and again, and there is almost NO base agreement. Even when most books are written are defined as "it is believed to have been..." and is most presumed to be the work of saint...." and that's the "new" testament.
So, the Bible is NOT law. What is written, the words, are not directions from God, but His follower's cultural understanding of him at that time, reflected in poetry, song, story telling etc.
So we cannot say the Bible says this, as there is no consensus. For instance, the dark ages interpretation of Jonah is all about the "fish" and being "swallowed"...when there never was a fish according to new schools of thought. When you place the origin of the story in what was happening at the time, wandering in the desert, what could be more scary than a 'monster' from the deep of a people many of whom have never seen a large body of water. Beacuse as yo9u read the story, it is not about a whale or a fish, it is about a man who tries not to do the will of God, goes to extremes to avoid it, and ends up there anyway..and a miracle results.
So no, the Bible settles nothing, but does what it was intended to do, but begin medications on what the stories are telling us. It is not an end, but The beginning.
