About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: Since the Lord had it on my heart to write this blog, 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.

Psalm 31:1- 24 Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

A Psalm of David to the chief Musician. 

Psalm 31:1-24           Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

I put my trust in You, O Lord. [Don't] let me [ever] be ashamed. Deliver me in Your righteousness. Bow down Your ear to me; & deliver me speedily. You be my strong Rock, & [fortress] of [defense] to save me. Therefore, for Your Name's sake, lead me, & guide me.

For You [are] my Rock & my Fortress. For You [are] my strength, pull me out of the net that they have [secretly] laid for me. Into Your hand, I commit my Spirit. You [have] redeemed me, O Lord God of Truth. [Luke 23:46 And when Jesus had cried [out] with a loud voice, He said, Father, into Your hands I commend My Spirit. And having said [this,] He [breathed his last breath.]

I have hated [those who] regard [what is] lying, vanities, but I trust in the Lord. [Matthew 26:3-4 Then assembled together the chief priests, scribes & elders of the people, to the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, & consulted [so] that they might take Jesus by [trickery,] & kill Him.]

I will be glad & rejoice in Your mercy: for You [have] known my soul in [adversity,] & considered my [troubles,] & [haven't silenced me,] [& put] me into the hand of the enemy. 

You [have] set my feet in a large room. Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am in trouble. [My eyes,] my soul, & my [stomach are] consumed with grief. [Luke 22:39-44 And [Jesus Christ,] came out, & went as He was [accustomed,] to the Mount of Olives, & His disciples also followed Him. And when He was at the place, He said to them, Pray, [so] that you [don't] enter into temptation. And [Jesus] was withdrawn from them about a stone's [throw,] & kneeled down, & prayed. Saying, Father, if You [are] willing, remove this cup from Me. Nevertheless, not My will, but Your [will] be done. And an Angel from heaven appeared there to Him, strengthening Him. And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. And His sweat was [like] it were [large] drops of blood falling down to the ground.]

For my life is spent with grief, & my years with sighing. My strength [has] [failed,] because of [my sin,] & my bones are consumed. I was a [disgrace] among all [my] enemies, but especially among my [neighbors,] & [acquaintances.] [Those who] saw me [outside,] fled from me.

[Isaiah 53:3-5 He is despised & rejected [by] men. A man of sorrows, & acquainted with grief. And we hid [like] it were our face from Him. He was despised, & we [didn't respect] Him. 

Surely, He has borne our griefs, & carried our sorrows. Yet, we [didn't regard] Him, [struck,] smitten, & afflicted [by] God. But He was wounded for our [sins.] He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement [for] our peace was upon Him, & with His stripes, [a.k.a. whip marks,] we are healed.] 

I am out of [their] mind, forgotten [like] a dead man. I am like a broken vessel. For I have heard the slander of many. Fear was on every side, while they took counsel together against Me. They [plotted] to take away My life.

[Matthew 27:1-2 When the morning [had] come, all the chief priests, & elders of the people, took counsel against Jesus, to put Him to death. And when they had bound Him, they led Him away, & delivered Him to Pontius Pilate, the governor.] 

But I trusted in You, O Lord. I said, You [are] My God. My times are in Your hand. Deliver Me from the hand of [My] enemies, & from [those who] persecute Me. [Matthew 5:10-12 Blessed are [those who [are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 

Blessed are you, when men shall [insult] you, & persecute you, & shall say all [types] of evil against you falsely, for My sake. Rejoice, & be [exceedingly] glad: For great is your reward in heaven. For they persecuted the prophets [this way, who] were before you.]

Make Your face shine upon Your servant, & save Me for Your mercies' sake. O Lord, Let Me not be ashamed, & let the wicked be ashamed, & let them be silent in the grave. Let the lying lips, which proudly speak [dreadful, insulting] things against the righteous, be [silenced.]

[Matthew 27:39-42 And [those who] passed by [insulted] Him, wagging their heads, & saying, You, [Who] destroys the temple, & builds it in 3 days, save Yourself. If you [are] the Son of God, come down from the cross. 

Also, the chief priests mocking Him, with the scribes, & elders, said, He saved others. He cannot save Himself. If He [is] the King of Israel, let Him come down now from the cross, & we will believe Him.]

Oh, how great is Your goodness, which You [have stored up] for [those who] fear, [a.k.a. respect,] You, which You [have set aside] for [those who,] trust in You, [in front of] the sons of men! 

In Your presence, You [shall] hide them [secretly] from the [quarreling] tongues, & the pride of man, & You shall keep them in a [secret] pavilion. [Psalm 27:5 For in the time of trouble, He shall hide me in His pavilion. He shall [put] me up on a rock, & He shall hide me in the secret [places] of His tabernacle.] 

Blessed be the Lord: for He [has shown] me His [marvelous] kindness in a [fortified] city. For in my haste, I said, I am cut off from [being] [in front of] Your eyes. [Still,] You [heard] the [sound] of my [appeals] when I cried [out] to You. 

O all you, His saints, love the Lord, for the Lord [protects] the faithful, & [paysback,] plentifully [those who] do [act] [proudly.] [Isaiah 2:11-12 The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, & the [arrogance] of men shall be bowed down. And the Lord Alone shall be exalted [on] that day. For the day of the Lord of Hosts shall be upon everyone [who] is proud, & lofty, & upon everyone [who] is lifted up, [a.k.a. magnified,] & he shall be brought low.]

Be of good courage, & He shall strengthen your heart, all you [who] hope in the Lord. [John 3:15-17 That [whoever believes] in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, [so] that [whoever believes] in Him shouldn't perish, but have everlasting life. For God [didn't send] His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.]
