When Jesus opens the eyes of the blind why do they first see men as trees, walking? (Mark 8:21)?

When we first have our spiritual eyes opened we see that scripture is written as parable and allegory (Gal 4:24). We see men as trees, limbs, branches, root of David, etc. Sacred scripture was never meant to be taken literally “for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life (2 cor 3:6). Seeing the dead letter of the Word is seeing it with a carnal or literal interpretation which has only brought death, condemnation, and division. It’s never meant to be taken as history or literal characters or stories. The dead letter represent the swaddling clothes, raiment, fine linen, etc. that the Living Word is wrapped in. The Hebrew religion borrowed/plundered from the Egyptians the silver (written word), gold (living word/spirit) and raiment (stories). The hidden manna contained within the outside stories is the pearl of great price, the hidden treasure. Once we see scripture as allegory we then see all men clearly, our brother, all from the same father, the invisible Spirit of Truth.

the reason why when Jesus opens the eyes of the blind and they at first see men as trees walking is because Jesus did not want to give eyesight back all at once or they could be blinded by the excessive light that they would of seen !
