Yes - I believe the meaning of the word when spoken is definative.

It is human weakness and sinfulness that causes us to
misunderstand even as we always misunderstand each other.

When people say something - they mean something specific.

Poetry and art are expressions that assert little and
leave to the imagination whatever they may inspire.

The word of God is Doctrine - it is specific - it has definate meaning.

To say otherwise is to deny the authority of God's word
and to obscure meaning even further from the lazy minds of men.

This is not just "my opinion" it is the truth and primary.

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God,
a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.

You can not "rightly divide" what is open to interpretation:

2 Peter 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy
of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

Not one single verse is up for grabs - there is only 1 right
intent of meaning behind the verse - the rest is false speculation
