It is unfair to deny the meaning of the biblical language which the Logical Positivism considers unverifiable by the test of sensory data.
The mathematical language does have its meaning by formulae and physical identification. One can count or analyze with scientific methods. Yet it needs an assumption for the formulae to be valid, or else the mathematical language will be rendered void.
Same goes with the biblical languages. The Biblical language is all about the Christianity faith and it is a way Christians communicate their faith and the truth they believe in. Though part of the language may be seen as "abstract" yet we are to be reminded that Human being is made up more than a physical part, but with soul and spirit too. The languages speak for these spheres have to be accepted as something meaningful for the individual, based on a common assumption accepted and understood by their circle. These languages can be verified by associated deeds and phenomena.
Every language worths its existence and it expresses the inner world of an individual or a community. And most of the languages can only be measured by its context and cultural settings.
