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.

Psalm 39:1-13 Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

 

A Psalm of David, to the chief Musician, even to Jeduthun.

Psalm 39:1-13           Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

I said, I will [pay attention] to my ways, [so] that I [don't] sin with my tongue. I will keep [control of] my mouth, [like] with a bridle, while the wicked [are] before me. 

[James 3:8-9 But the tongue no man can tame. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. [With this,] we bless, even God the Father & [with this,] we also curse men, [who] are made in the [image] of God.]

I was [mute] with silence. I held My peace, even from good & My sorrow was stirred. [Isaiah 53:7-8 He was oppressed & He was afflicted, yet He [didn't] open His mouth. He is brought [like] a lamb to the slaughter & [like] sheep before [its] shearers [are mute,] so He [didn't] open His mouth.

He was taken from prison & from [justice.] And who shall declare His generation? For He was cut off, out of the land of the living: for the [sins] of my people, He was stricken.]

My heart was hot within me, while I was [thinking,] the fire burned. Then I [spoke] with my [mouth,] Lord, make me know [my final] end & the [amount] of my days & what it is, [so] I may know how [weak] I am. 

[Look,] You have made my days before You, [like the width of a hand] & my age is [like] nothing. [Truly,] every man, at his [very] best is [totally] vanity. Selah. Surely, every man [follows as] a vain [shadow.] 

Surely, they are [agitated] in vain, [without need.] He [who] heaps up riches & doesn't know who will gather them [when he dies.] And now, Lord, what [do] I wait for? My hope is in You. Deliver me from all my [sins] & [don't] make me the [disgrace] of the foolish.

[Daniel 9:16 O Lord, according to all Your righteousness, I [beg] You, let Your anger & Your fury be turned away from Your city, Jerusalem & Your holy mountain: because [of] our sins & for the iniquities of our [forefathers.] Jerusalem & Your people [have] become a [disgrace] to all [who] are [around] us.] 

I was dumb & I [didn't] open my mouth, because You did it. [Matthew 26:62-64 And the high priest arose & said to Him, [Do] You answer nothing? What is it, [that] these witness against You? But Jesus held His peace. 

And the high priest answered & said to Him, I [urge] You by the Living God, that You tell us whether You [are] the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus said to him, You have said [so.] [Still,] I say to you, Here after, you shall see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of power & coming in the clouds of heaven.] 

Remove Your [striking ] away from me. I am consumed by the blow of Your hand. [Mark 15:18-20 And [they] began to salute Him, Hail, King of the Jews! And they [struck] Him on the head with a reed & spit upon Him & bowing their knees, worshiped Him. And when they had mocked Him, they took off the purple from Him & put His own clothes on Him & led Him out to crucify Him.] 

When you correct a man for [sin] with [scolding,] you [cause] his beauty [to be devoured,] like a moth. Surely, every man is vanity. Selah. O Lord, hear my prayer & listen to my [outcry.] 

[Don't] hold Your peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with You & a [temporary resident, like] all my [forefathers] were. O spare me, [so] I may recover strength, before I go [from here] & [I am] no [longer.]
