About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible:

About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: I was uncertain of how to accomplish this, mindful of Revelation 22:18-19, which says that nobody is to add to, or to take away from what was written in the Bible. After lots of prayerful contemplation, the Lord had it on my heart that I’m not to change the meaning of what is written in the Bible. He has also shown ways to add to people’s understating of that meaning, without altering the meaning, by putting that info within [brackets]. This is primarily accomplished with the KJV Bible and lots of prayers, but at times, BibleGateway.com, Biblehub.com, NIV Bible, Webster Dictionary, and other internet resources, as needed.

About Understanding the Bible:

Understanding the Bible: After reading Isaiah 28:10 many times over the years and not totally understanding it, it recently became apparent to me that the Lord God has this passage as the means for understanding the Bible. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little. Isaiah 28:10 KJV. Being prayerful about this passage, and looking up 'precept' in the Webster's Dictionary, it gave this passage a whole new meaning, once 'commandment' is substituted for 'precept'. Within brackets are additional words the Lord had on my heart to aid in understanding the meaning. For commandment must be [built up] upon commandment; commandment upon commandment; line upon line, line upon line; [developing understanding] here a little, and there a little.

The Table Format:

The Table Format: I was overwhelmed with how to explain the process for determining if someone had leprosy in Leviticus 13, which seemed very complicated. After praying, "Lord, if this is difficult for me to understand after reading it many times, how can this be explained to others?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was for me to put it into a vertical chart to visually see the process. This made it much easier for me to follow the progression. After doing so, I prayed, "Lord, how can this be conveyed to readers, so that they can understand this process?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was to put it within the lines of a table. Being a stiff-necked, stubborn person, as it's often called in the Bible, I prayed, asking the Lord God if He's sure that's really what He wanted me to do? I reluctantly put Leviticus 13 into a table format. When I read this difficult leprosy process within a table format, it suddenly became easier for me to understand. That's because it builds line upon line, as explained in the Understanding the Bible section. Shortly after that, the Lord God had it on my heart, to put all of The Books of the Bible in Smaller Chunks within a table format, to aid in understanding, line upon line.

Deuteronomy 21:1- Solving Murders

 

Solving Murders

Deuteronomy 21:1-23      Deuteronomy the Fifth Book of Moses

If [someone] is found [dead,] lying in the field of the land [that] the Lord your God gives you to possess & [it’s] not known who [killed] him: Then your elders & judges shall come [out] & measure to the [closest] cities around [the dead person.] 

Then the elders of the [closet] city to the [killed] man, shall take a heifer that has [never worked or worn] a yoke & bring it down to a valley [that hasn’t been plowed or planted] with. The elders shall bring down the heifer into a valley, [that hasn’t been planted or harvested] & cut off the heifer’s neck there in the valley. 

The priests, the sons of Levi, shall come near, for the Lord your God has chosen them to minister to Him & to bless the Name of the Lord. By their word every controversy & [assault] shall be tried.

All the elders of the city [nearest] to the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer that is beheaded in the valley. They shall say, Our hands haven’t shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it [happen.] 

O Lord, be merciful to your people, Israel, whom You have redeemed. [Don’t hold the shedding of innocent blood against them.] And the [bloodshed shall be atoned for.] So you shall [take] away the guilt of innocent blood from among you, when you shall do [what] is right in the sight of the Lord. 

When you [go out] to war against your enemies & the Lord your God has delivered them into your hands & you have taken them captive & [you] see among the captives a beautiful woman & have [desires for] her to [be] your wife;

Then, you shall bring her home to your house. She shall shave her head & [cut] her nails. She shall [take] off the [clothing] of her captivity & remain in your house & [mourn for] her father & mother a full month. 

After that, you [may be intimate with] her & be her husband. She shall be your wife. [If you aren’t pleased with] her, then, you shall let her go [wherever] she wants, but you shall not sell her or [treat her like a slave,] because you have humbled her. 

If a man has 2 wives, 1 beloved & the [other] hated & they both have [bore] him [sons] & the firstborn son is [from the wife] that was hated: Then it shall be, when he makes his sons inherit [what] he has, he may not [give a larger inheritance to] the son of the beloved [wife, as if he were the] firstborn.

But he shall acknowledge the son of the [wife] he hated [as] the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he has. For [the firstborn] is the beginning of all his strength & the [rights] of the firstborn [are] his.

If a man has a rebellious & stubborn son, [who won’t] obey the voice of his father or mother & [after] they have [punished] him, he still won’t [listen] to them, then his mother & father shall [take] hold of him & bring him to the elders at the gate of the city [to be judged.] 

They shall say to the city elders, This is our stubborn & rebellious son. He won’t obey our voice. He is a glutton & a drunkard. All the men of the city shall [stone him to death,] so you shall put away [the] evil from among you. 

All [of] Israel shall hear & be [afraid.] If a man has committed a sin worthy of death, he [is] to be put to death, you shall hang him on a tree. His body shall not remain on the tree all night, but you shall bury him that day.

* (For he [who] is hanged on a tree is accursed of God;) that your land [isn’t] defiled, [that] the Lord your God gives you [as] an inheritance. [John 19:16-18 Then [Pilate] delivered Him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus & led Him away. And He bearing His [wooden] cross, went [out] into a place called The Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew: Golgotha; where they crucified Him & 2 [others] with Him, on either side one & Jesus in the [middle.]
