Remember up until Martin Luther... interpretation of the bible was seen as something only a priest could be done.

If the bible were literal what interpretation would be needed?

If the law is literal, why do we need judges and lawyers to interpret it? 

We don't.  Nothing except for the really complicated property laws and tax laws that nobody can understand because there is more for one person to read then anyone could go over due to government bueracracy.

Judges and Laywers for criminal trials aren't there to interpret laws... but to figure out if people did what they said they did.  Except for the supreme court.  Which is really needed for appeals but they do get into a lot of areas they shouldn't need to.
