The Netziv in Parashas Haazinu suggests that the Gemara in Berachos means
that we discourage offering one's own explanations in Tanach before being
fully proficient in Darkei Iyyun HaGemara - Halachah and Agadeta (and
experience bears out the wisdom of this recommendation). Just as a Kallah
wears 24 adornments and looks beautiful, but one who is not a kallah who
wears all that jewelry is suspected of being a zonah, so too a Talmid
Chacham who interprets Tanach is beautiful, but one who is not a TC who
interprets Chazal is suspected of Apikorsus.

But Bekius in Tanach is encouraged all along.
