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 85:1-13 Book# 3 of Psalms

 

A Psalm for the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician.

Psalm 85:1-13           Book# 3 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

Lord, You have [favored] Your land & You have brought back [those from] the captivity of Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel.] [Jeremiah 16:11-15 Then, you shall say to them, Because your [forefathers] have [abandoned] Me, says the Lord & have walked after other gods & have served them & worshiped them & have [forgotten] Me & haven't kept My Law. 

And you have done worse than your [forefathers;] for [look,] every one [of] you walk after the imagination of his evil heart, [so] they may not [listen] to Me. Therefore, I will cast you out of this land into a land that neither you & your [forefathers don’t] know. 

And you shall serve other gods there day & night; where I will not [show] you favor. Therefore, [watch,] the days come, says the Lord, that it shall no [longer] be said, The Lord lives, [who] brought up the children [people] of Israel out of the land of Egypt. 

But, the Lord lives, [Who] brought up the children [people] of Israel from the land of the north & from the lands [where] He had driven them. And I will bring them [back] again into their land that I gave to their [forefathers.] 

You have forgiven the iniquity of Your people. You have covered all their sin. Selah. [Psalm 32:1-2 Blessed is he, whose transgression is forgiven & whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord [doesn't attribute] iniquity & in whose spirit is no [deceit.] 

You have taken away all Your [fury.] You have turned Yourself from the fierceness of Your anger. [Return to] us, O God of our Salvation & cause Your anger toward us to [stop.] Will You be angry with us forever?

Will You [stretch] out Your anger to all generations? Will You not revive us again: [so] Your people may rejoice in You? [Habakkuk 3:2 O Lord, I have heard Your speech & was afraid. O Lord, [restore] Your work in the midst of the years. Make known, in the midst of the years, [When] in [anger,] remember mercy.]

[Show] us Your mercy, O Lord & grant us Your Salvation. I will hear what the Lord God will [say:] for He will speak [peacefully] to His people & to His saints. But let them not [return] again to [what is] [foolishness.] Surely His Salvation is [near those who] fear [respect] Him; [so] that glory may dwell in our land. 

Mercy & Truth [meet] together & righteousness & peace have kissed each other. Truth shall spring out of the earth & righteousness shall look down from heaven. [John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I Am the Way, the Truth & the Life. No man comes to the Father, [except] by Me.] 

[Yes,] the Lord shall give [what] is good & our land shall yield [its] increase [of produce.] Righteousness shall go before Him & shall [put] us in the [path] of His steps.

[James 1:17 Every good gift & every perfect gift is from above & comes down from the Father of Lights, with Whom is no [variation] & neither shadow of [changing.]
