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 80:1-19 Book# 3 of Psalms

A Psalm of Asaph, to the chief Musician upon Shoshannim Eduth.

Psalm 80:1-19           Book# 3 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

O Shepherd of Israel, give ear, [a.k.a. hear,] You [Who lead] Joseph, [a.k.a Israel,] like a flock. You, [Who dwells] between the cherubims, shine forth.        [1 Kings 8:6-7 And the priests brought in the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord unto [its] place, into the oracle of the house, to the Most Holy Place, even under the wings of the cherubims. 

For the cherubims spread [out] their 2 wings over the place of the Ark, & the cherubims covered the Ark, & the [poles] above [there.]

[Arouse] Your strength, & come, & save us [in front of:] Ephraim, Benjamin, & Manasseh. [Return] [to] us again, O God, & cause Your face to shine, & we shall be saved. [Isaiah 9:2 *The people, [who] walked, [a.k.a. followed,] in darkness, have seen a great Light. [Those, who] dwell in the land of the shadow of death, the Light [has] shined upon them.]

O Lord of Hosts, how long [will] You be angry, against the [prayers] of Your people? [Isaiah 54:7-8 For a [little] moment, I have [abandoned] you. But I will gather you with great mercies. I hid My face from you for a moment, in a little [anger,] but I will have mercy on you, with everlasting kindness, [says] the Lord your Redeemer.]

You [feed] them with the bread of tears; & [give] them tears to drink in great measure. To our [neighbors,] You [make] us a [reason for] [quarrels,] & our enemies laugh among themselves.

[Return] [to] us again, O God of Hosts, & cause Your face to shine, & we shall be saved. You [have] brought a vine out of Egypt, & You [have] cast out the heathen, & planted it.

[Isaiah 5:7 For the vineyard of the Lord of Hosts is the house of Israel, & the men of Judah, [are] His pleasant plant. And He looked for judgment, [a.k.a. justice,] but [only] [saw] oppression, & [He looked] for righteousness, but [only heard] an [out] cry.]

You [prepared] room before it, [a.k.a. In front of Israel,] & [caused] it to take deep root, & it filled the land. [Joshua 24:18-20 And the Lord [drove] out all the people, even the Amorites, [who] dwelt in the land before us. Therefore, we will also serve the Lord; for He is our God. 

And Joshua said to the people, You cannot serve the Lord, for He is a Holy God, & He is a Jealous God. He will not forgive your transgressions, nor your sins. If you [abandon] the Lord, & serve strange gods, then He will turn & do you [harm,] & consume you, after [all] that good He [has] done [for] you.] 

The hills were covered with the shadow of it, & [its] boughs were like the [mighty] cedars. She sent out her boughs to the sea, & her branches to the river. [Psalm 105:43-45 And [God] brought out His people with joy, & His chosen with gladness, & gave them the lands of the heathen. And they inherited the [labor] of the people, [so] that they might observe, [a.k.a. obey,] His [mandates,] & keep His Laws. You, praise the Lord.]

Then, why [have] You broken down her hedges, so that all [those who] pass by the [road] do pluck her? [Revelation 3:19 I [reprimand] & [chastise] as many as I love. Therefore, be zealous, & repent.]

The boar [from] the [woods wastes, a.k.a. ruins,] it, & the wild [beasts] of the field devour it. [Jeremiah 10:24-25 O Lord, correct me, with judgment, [a.k.a. justice,] & not in Your anger, lest You bring me to nothing. Pour out your fury upon the heathen, that [don't] know You, & upon the families that [don't] call on Your Name. For they have eaten up Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel,] & consumed, [a.k.a. devoured,] him, & have made his habitation desolate.]

We [beg] You, return, O God of Hosts. Look down from heaven, & [see,] & visit this vine; & the vineyard [that] Your right hand [has] planted, & the branch that You [made] strong for Yourself. It is burned with fire & it's cut down.  [Isaiah 1:23-24 Your princes are rebellious, & companions of thieves. Everyone [loves] gifts, & [follows] after rewards, [a.k.a. bribes.] They [don't] judge the fatherless, & neither [does] the [case] of the widow come to them. Therefore, the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, [says,] Ah, I will ease [Myself] of [My] adversaries, & avenge [Myself] of [My] enemies.]

They perish at the [disapproval] of Your countenance. Let Your hand be upon the man, [at] Your right hand, upon the Son of Man, Whom You [made] strong for Yourself. 

[Psalm 89:20-21 I have found David, My servant, & I have anointed him with My holy oil, with whom My hand shall be established. [My] arm shall also strengthen him.]

So, we won't go back from You. [Revive] us, & we will call upon Your Name. [Return] [to] us again, O Lord God of Hosts, & [make] Your face to shine, & we shall be saved.
