Theres early christian iconography revolving around mushrooms as well, so ive wondered if the “forbidden fruit” aka “fruit of knowledge” was originally a psilocybin mushroom.
The head of a mushroom is a fruiting body. I know that is a huge distinction but could be confused pretty easily. Especially if there is some translation fun between.
No, but like, a metaphor is when there’s some second meaning. Why would you call a mushroom a fruit? Especially since none of this was in English anyway and so there’s no way of knowing if any secondary meanings of the word would have also made any sense poetically.
Interesting stuff!

Sounds like a JRE episode
Nobody calls mushrooms fruit

Metaphors exist.
Unless youre trying to tell me everything in the bible is literal?
Obviously not. But that’s not a metaphor. That’s just using the wrong word.
Oh, you consulted the author?

You’re a mushroom.
