I would say "external meaning" is "opinion". Internal meaning is
private (1-person, incorrigible) knowledge.

(or I have to reconsider my understanding of some preceding posts).

Would you accept (as a first rough approximation):

Truth = Reality = God (be it 'Primary Matter" or "Jesus" or
"Number" or whatever)
Intellect = Science = Opinion = Theory = Doubt
Soul = (lucky (?) case when) Intellect matches Truth
