I am honestly wondering if the Quran is written in a similar manner, and can be interpreted in different ways.

I think Rudey's answer to this question is sufficient. There are some things that are spelled out exactly, and other things that are more figurative. An example of figurative is the topic of wearing a headscarf. The Quran simply says that woman (and men too) should cover their modesty. So that is where the debate comes in, because different people have different definitions of "modesty".
