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.

Job 32:1-22 Elihu Tells Why He Waited

 

Elihu Tells Why He Waited

Job 32:1-22                                  Book of Job [in Smaller Chunks]

So, these 3 men [stopped] to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes. Then, the [anger] of Elihu, the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the [family] of Ram, [grew] against Jobe, because [Job] justified himself, rather than God. 

Also, [Elihu's anger grew] against his 3 friends, because they had found no answer & [still] had condemned Job. Now, Elihu had waited [until] Job had spoken, because [they were older] than he. When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the [mouth's] of these 3 men, then his [anger grew.] 

And Elihu, the Buzite, answered & said, I am young & you are very old. Therefore, I was afraid & [dared] not show you [my] opinion. I said, [Those with advanced age] & the multitude of years should speak & teach wisdom. But there is a spirit in man & the inspiration of the Almighty gives them understanding. 

[1 Kings 4:29 And God gave Solomon [extremely much] wisdom & understanding & a [huge] heart even [like] the sand that is on the seashore.] Great men are not always wise. Neither do the aged [always] understand [justice.]

[1 Corinthians 1:26-27 For [consider] your calling, brethren, that not many wise, mighty & noble men are called after [worldly] flesh. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to [confuse] the wise. And God has chosen the weak things of the world to [confuse those who] are mighty.] 

Therefore, I said, [Listen] to me. I will also [share] my opinion. [See,] I waited for your words & I [listened] to your reasons, [while] you [pondered] what to say. [Yes,] I [paid attention] to you & [looked,] there [were] none of you [who] convinced Job, or [who answered] his [questions.]

Lest you shall say, We have found out wisdom. God [threw Job] down, not man. [1 Corinthians 1:29 That no [human] flesh should [glorify himself] in [God's] presence.] Now [Job] hasn't directed his words against me. Neither will I answer him with your [accusatory] speeches.

They were amazed & they [no longer] answered & they [stopped] speaking. When I waited, (they [didn't speak], but stood still and no [longer] answered.) I said, I will also [ask] my [portion of the questions.] I will [share] my opinion, [as well.] For I am full of [material,] but the spirit within me [restrains] me. 

[Look,] my [stomach] is [churning, like] wine, [that] has no vent. It is ready to burst, like [newly opened] bottles. I will speak, [so] that I may be [relieved.] I will open my lips & answer.

I pray [that] you not let me [show favoritism to] any person & neither let me give flattering titles to [men.] For I [don't] know [how] to give flattering titles. In doing so, my Maker would soon take me away. [Job 27:8 For what hope is the hypocrite, [although] he has [benefitted,] when God takes away his soul?]
