In the Bible, everything testifies about Jesus. A big part of this is found in symbolic words. The writers of the Bible mentioned symbolic words often (Heb. 9:24, Gal. 4:24, Eph. 5:13, 1 Pet. 3:21). Below is a list of some of those words, their definitions, and the biblical evidence.
Adult
Fully knowledgable (see “Baby/Infant/Child“).
Alive/Living
Active (see “Dead“)
Ark (Tebah)
Flesh (not to be confused with the word “Ark” as in the “Ark of the Covenant,” but only the word “Tebah” [literally, “box, chest”] as used in Genesis 6-9 and Exodus 2). 
Arrow
Similar or the same as “Sword.” Probably something that divides, shatters.
Baby/Infant/Child
Unlearned, lacking knowledge, immature (“Adult” therefore, would mean “fully knowledgable.”)
(not to be confused with “Son/Daughter/Offspring“)
Belly
Similar or the same as “Heart.“ Insides, inner.
Coat/Clothing
Something exterior, on the outside. Used for manifestation. Also used for flesh (Unclothed/naked would mean a spirit without a flesh/nothing exterior). 
Crown
Something on the top, on the surface (see Head)
Dark/Shade/Shadow
Anything that makes things not visible, hidden. Either in the sense of blindness, concealment or in the sense of protection (also see “Light/Lamp/Brightness“). 
Dead
Inactive (alive would therefore mean “Active.” Also note: Putting something to “death” would mean rendering it inactive. Giving “life” to something would mean empowering it to activity.) 
Evil Eye
Someone whose mind seeks physical things (Definition may be broader. While a good eye/whole eye seems to refer to someone whose whole mind is fixed on the Lord). 
Fire
Similar or the same as Light/Lamp/Brightness. Something that makes things visible, manifest, exposed (Also used in reference to testing, in the sense of proving/revealing the quality of something). 
Fish
Something or someone belonging to the underworld or death. Knowing that “the Sea” is a term for the underworld, fish is used for those who belong to it. It also seems to be used for death or the dead (also see “The Sea/The Deep”). 
Foundations Of The Earth
A term used for the underworld (also see “The Sea/The Deep”)
Good/Whole Eye
Someone whose whole mind is fixed on the Lord (Definition may be broader. See “Evil Eye“)
Harlotry/Fornication
Someone who rejects the Lord’s covenant (rejecting the gospel) for the love of other things (as if going after other lovers). 
Head
The top, the surface. Either in the sense of authority (as top ranking) or the outer surface of our flesh (where things manifest). Therefore, anything placed on the head (i.e. a crown) can represent the thing itself that is manifesting.. 
Heart
Insides, inner (also see “Kidneys“)
Kidneys (often translated “Reins”)
Similar or the same as “Heart.“ Insides, inner (particularly of our inner man/mind)
Light/Lamp/Brightness
Anything that makes things visible, manifest, exposed (also see “Dark/Shade/Shadow“). 
Milk/Breast
Simple. Therefore it can be used in the sense of “unmixed, undefiled, uncorrupted” (hence clean, pure) or in the sense of uncomplicated, easy (also see “Baby/Infant/Child“).
Morning/Day
A time period where things are seen, visible, manifest (see Light/Lamp/Brightness). Hence “night” would be a time period where things are not seen (also see Dark/Shade/Shadow). 
Night
A time period where things are not seen, visible, manifest (also see Morning/Day)
Oil/Olives/Anointing
Something that makes clear, without blockage or obstruction. Either in the sense of making something visible/manifest or in the sense of something being made smooth without hinderance. 
Ox/Donkey
Servant (also see “Yoke”). 
Pit/Ditch/Well
A place under the earth (possibly more general, a place underneath) (also see “The Sea, Water, and Valley“).
Salt
Exact definition uncertain. Similar or the same as “Light/Lamp/Brightness” and “Fire.” Therefore, having to do with making manifest or proving the quality of something.. 
The Sea/The Deep
A place under the earth (possibly more general, a place underneath) (also see “Water, Pit, and Valley“).
Shepherd
A leader, a guide (also see “Staff/Rod”)
Sitting/Lying Down
Inactive. Used in various senses, such as rest from working, incapability to work, or death (“Standing” therefore means, active). 
Son/Daughter/Offspring
Partaking of someone or something’s likeness
(not to be confused with the words “Baby/Infant/Child“)
Standing
Active (see Sitting/Lying Down).
Stone
Still, by implication dead (because dead means inactive), by implication eternal (in the sense of enduring, remaining), by implication firm (in the sense of unmoving), or by implication stubborn (as unmoving).
Stone Rolled Away
Exact definition uncertain. Associated with flesh no longer working, but the Spirit (also see “Stone“). 
Thorns/Briers
Useless. Either in the sense of having no profit or in the sense of being idle, still and inutile. Used as the opposite of fruit. 
Valley/Bottoms Of The Mountains
A place under the earth, underneath (seemingly as the bottom level of the heavens/mountains) (also see “The Sea, Pit, and Water“).
Wilderness
Empty or bare. Either in the sense of desolate and barren (no fruit) or solitary, secluded and alone (no inhabitant).
Wine/Grapes/Vine/Intoxicating Drink
Something that causes thoughtlessness, forgetfulness, unconsciousness. By implication, it can refer to “causing rest,” in the sense of “thoughtless/careless.” Also by implication, it can refer to rejoicing the heart, due to it meaning thoughtless/careless. Being drunk can therefore mean all of the above as well. 
Yoke
Service (also see “Ox/Donkey”).
