To the chief Musician upon Jonath Elem Rechokim, Michtam, [a.ka. Miktam,] of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath. |
Psalm 56:1-13 Book# 2 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
O God, be merciful to Me: for man would [devour] Me. He oppresses Me & [fights] daily. O You Most High, [My] enemies would swallow Me up daily: for they [are] many [who] fight against Me. [Matthew 26:3-4 Then, the chief priests, scribes, & the elders of the people, assembled together, to the palace of the high priest, who is called Caiaphas, & consulted [so] that they might take Jesus by [trickery,] & kill Him.] |
[Whenever] I'm afraid, I will trust: in You, & in His Word, & I will praise God. I have put my trust in God, & I won't [be] [afraid of] what [man] can do to me. [Romans 8:31 Then, what shall we say [about] these things? If God [is] for us, who can be against us.] |
Everyday, they [twist] My words [around.] All their thoughts are against Me for evil. [Luke 6:6-11 And it also [happened] on another Sabbath, that [Jesus Christ,] entered into the synagogue & taught. And there was a man whose right hand was withered. And the scribes, & Pharisees watched [Jesus,] whether He would heal on the Sabbath Day, [so] that they might find an accusation against Him. But He knew their thoughts, & said to the man [who] had the withered hand, Rise up, & stand [out] in the [middle.] And he arose, & stood [up.] Then, Jesus said to them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful to do good, or to do evil on the Sabbath Days? To save life, or to destroy it? And looking [all around] them all, He said to the man, Stretch [out] your hand. And he did so; & his hand was restored whole [like] the other. And they were filled with [insane, a.k.a. rage,] & [talked] with one another [about] what they might do to Jesus.] |
They gather themselves together, & they hide themselves. They [watch] My steps, when they [lay in] wait for My soul, [a.k.a. life.] [Matthew 22:15-21 Then, the Pharisees went, & took counsel, [on] how they might entangle Him in His talk. And they sent out their disciples with the Herodians to Him, saying, [Teacher,] we know that You [are] true, & [teach] the way of God in truth. |
Neither [do] You [show partiality] for any man: for You [don't regard] the [status] of men. Therefore, tell us, What [do] You [think?] Is it lawful to give tribute, [a.k.a. taxes,] to Caesar, or not? But Jesus [realized] their wickedness, & said, Why [do] you [test] Me, you hypocrites? |
[Show] Me the tribute money. And they brought to Him a penny. And He [said] to them, Whose is this image, & [inscription?] Then, they [said] to Him, Caesar's. Then, He [said] to them, Therefore, [give] to Caesar, the things [that] are Caesar's, & to God, [give] the things that are God's.] |
Shall they escape by [sinfulnss?] O God, in Your anger, [throw] down the people. [Proverbs 11:5 The righteousness of the perfect, [a.k.a. blameless,] shall direct his [path:] but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.] |
You put My tears into Your bottle. You tell [of] my [journeys,] aren't they in Your book? When I cry [out] to You, then [My] enemies shall [return] back. I know this; for God is for Me. [Hebrews 13:5-6 Let your conversation be without [envy;] & be content with such things as you have. For He [has] said, I will never leave you, nor [abandon] you. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, & I won't fear what man shall do to me.] |
I will praise God in His Word, & I will praise the Lord in His Word. I have put my trust in God. I will not be afraid [of] what man can do to me. O God, I will [give] praises to You, [for] Your vows are upon Me. For You have delivered My soul from death. [John 20:26-30 And after 8 days, again His disciples were [inside,] & Thomas with them. Then, Jesus came, the doors being shut, & stood in the [middle,] & said, Peace be to you. *Then, [Jesus] said to Thomas, Reach your finger [here,] & [see] My hands, & reach your hand [here,] & thrust it into My side. And [don't] be [without faith,] but believing. And Thomas answered & said to Him, My Lord & my God. Jesus said to him, Thomas, because you [have] seen Me, you [have] believed. Blessed are [those who] haven't seen, & [still] have believed.] |
[Won't] You deliver My feet from falling, [so] that I may walk before God in the Light of the living? [1 John 1:7 But if we walk, [a.k.a. follow,] in the Light, [like] He is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another. And the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, [cleanses] us from all sin.] |
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.
