Umm, a translated text, from an ancient alien world, with vastly different assumptions and cultural norms and understandings.
Plain reading? Really?
And the Nicene creed is precisely to the point - actually the huge theological debate about father's and sons - lovely bath - our understanding now is directly influenced by the views and arguments of people in between.
This is very like studying fossils - we must be very careful about all assumptions - nothing is plain and obvious.
