You've not understood. This is because you do not have "eyes to see" or "ears to hear" as Jesus himself said. It is not granted to you to understand the secrets in the text quite obviously. It's up to you to come to terms with that and to work out why the "mysteries of the kingdom" have been hidden from you.
Let me elucidate the scale of your ignorance. Here's a well known passage from Genesis. The ignorant fool will read this and take it literally. He will not understand the allegorical terms being used (which I highlight in bold below). His mind is blinded because he is not ready to understand or accept the true message:
Genesis 2:4-7: "This is the history of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground; but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground. And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being."
None of the terms in bold are literal here. Yes there exist the Earth and Rain and Mist in real life but here, in this passage they are referring to something else. The passage is describing a process, a chemical process that happens in a glass flask. This will make no sense to you because you are currently blind.
Here's another passage referring to the same process:
Isaiah 45:8 ASV
"Distil, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, that it may bring forth salvation,
and let it cause righteousness to spring up together; I, Jehovah, have created it. "
and here's yet another
Proverbs 3:13-20:
"Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise of it is
better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou
canst desire are not to be compared unto her. Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour. Her ways are
ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that
retaineth her. The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew."
This entire passage is allegorical and is refering to the same thing as the other passages. It's an allegory of what happens in the glass flask, the vapours that rise to the top of the flask (heavens) and then condense and fall back down as dew.
Empty your cup of all this pious nonsense so that it can be filled with truth. Until you do you will remain blind to the hidden messages, the "mysteries of the kingdom"
