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.

1 Chronicles 14:1-17 The Children David Fathered in Israel

 

The Children David Fathered in Israel

1 Chronicles 14:1-17     1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

Now, Hiram, [a.k.a. Huram, Tyre's] king, sent messengers to David [with] cedar timber, masons & carpenters to build David a [palace.] David [realized] the Lord had [established] him [as] king over Israel, for his kingdom was [highly exalted,] because of His people Israel. 

David took more wives [in] Jerusalem & David [fathered] more sons & daughters. These are the names of his children, [that] he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, Ibhar, Elishua, El Palet, [a.k.a. Elpelet,] 

And Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, Elishama, Beeliada [a.k.a. Beehada] & Eliphalet, [a.k.a. Eliphelet.] And when the Philistines heard David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to [look for] David. 

David heard [about] it & went out against them. And the Philistines came & spread themselves [out & raided] in the Valley of Rephaim. David [inquired] of God, [asking,] Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into [my] hand?

And the Lord said to him, Go up: for I will deliver them into your hand. So, the [Philistines] came up to Baal Perazim & David [defeated] them there. Then, David said, God has broken [out] upon [my] enemies by my hand, like the waters [break through.]

Therefore, the place was called Baal Perazim. And when the [Philistines] had left their gods there, David gave a command & they were burned with fire. And [still] again, the Philistines spread themselves [around] in the valley. 

Therefore, David [inquired] again of God. And God said to [David, Don't] go up after them. Turn away from them & come upon them [in front of ] the mulberry trees. 

It shall be when you hear a sound going [through] the tops of the mulberry trees, then you shall go out to battle: for God has gone [out] before you to [strike] the [army] of the Philistines. 

Therefore, David did as God commanded him. They [defeated] the [Philistine army] from Gibeon, even to Gazer. And [David's] fame went out into all the lands. And the Lord brought the fear [respect] of [David] upon all nations.
