Our Group’s (Group One’s) position is that meaning is found in the text. The most important aspect of the text is that there can be literal meanings as well as non-literal meanings which have to be differentiated after interpretation by every reader. Otherwise, there can be confusion/dilemma built in the mind of every reader reading and trying to interpret from the text. The implied meanings of the author and the readers can be deceptive or difficult to decipher. This is because there can be minds and hearts of readers not matching or getting synchronized to believe in one particular interpretation.
