A Song & Psalm for the sons of Korah. |
Psalm 48:1-14 Book# 2 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
In the city of our God, Great is the Lord, & greatly to be praised, in the mountain of His holiness. |
[Psalm 66:4-6 All the earth shall worship You, & shall sing to You. They shall sing to Your Name. Selah. Come, & see the works, [a.k.a. miracles,] of God. He is [terribly awesome] in [what] [He does] toward the children of men. He turned the sea into dry land, & they went through the flood on foot, & we [rejoiced] in Him there.] |
Mount Zion, the joy of the whole earth, the city of the great King, [is] [beautifully situated,] on the sides of the North. [Psalm 50:2 God [has] shined out of Zion, [a.k.a. Jerusalem,] the perfection of beauty.] |
God is known in [Mount Zion's] palaces, [as] a refuge. For, [look,] the kings were assembled, & passed by [it] together. [Revelation 6:13-14 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, even [like] a fig tree [casts its unripened] figs, when [it] is shaken [from] a mighty wind. And the heaven departed [like] a scroll when it is rolled together. And every mountain & island were [removed] out of their places.] |
So, they [marveled,] [when] they saw it. They were troubled, & [hurried] away. Fear took hold [of] them there, [like the] pain of a woman in [childbirth.] [Revelation 6:15-17 And the kings of the earth, & the: great men, rich men, chief captains, [a.k.a. leaders,] the mighty men, & every man [in chains,] & every free man, hid themselves in the dens, [a.k.a. caves,] & in the rocks of the mountains, & said to the mountains & rocks, Fall on us, & hide us from the face of Him, [Who sits] on the throne, & from the wrath of the Lamb. For the great day of His wrath [has] come, & who shall be able to stand?] |
You [break] the ships of Tarshish with an East wind. [2 Chronicles 20:35-37 And after this, Jehoshaphat, [Judah's] king, [joined] himself with Ahaziah, [Israel's] king, who did very wickedly. And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish. And they made the ships in Ezion Gaber. Then, Eliezer, the son of Dodavah, [from] Mareshah, prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because you [have] joined yourself with Ahaziah, the Lord [has] broken your works. And the ships were broken, [so] that they weren't able to go to Tarshish.] |
[Just] as we have heard, we have [also] seen in the city of the Lord of Hosts, in the city of our God. God will establish [the city] forever. Selah. |
In the midst of Your temple, we have thought of Your loving kindness. Your right hand is full of righteousness. O God, so is Your praise according to Your Name, unto the ends of the earth. |
[Malachi 1:11 From [sunrise] even to [sunset,] My Name shall be great among the Gentiles, & in every place that incense shall be offered to My Name. A pure offering to My Name, shall be great among the heathen, [says] the Lord of Hosts.] |
Let Mount Zion rejoice, & let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of Your judgments. Walk [around] Zion, & go [all around] her, & [count its] towers. You [remember] well: her [castle walls,] & consider her palaces, [so] that you may tell it to the following generation. [Psalm 78:5-7 For [the Lord God] established a testimony in Jacob, & appointed a Law in Israel, [that] He commanded our [forefathers, [so] that they should make them known to their children. [So] that the generation to come, might know them, even the children [that] should be born, who should arise & declare them to their children. [So] that they might set, [a.k.a. focus,] their hope in God, & not forget the works, [a.k.a. miracles,] of God, but keep His commandments.] |
For this God, is our God forever & ever. He will be our guide, even to death. [Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I will fear no evil. For You are with me. Your rod, & Your staff, they comfort me.] |
And I heard, but [didn't understand.] Then, I said, O my Lord, What shall be the end of these things? And He said, Go [on] your way, Daniel: for the Words are closed up and sealed till the time of the End. Daniel 12:8-9 KJV
About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible:
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.
