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.

Proverbs 24:1-34 Tips About Evil, False Witnesses & Knowledge

 

Tips About Evil, False Witnesses & Knowledge

Proverbs 24:1-34                                    Proverbs [in Smaller Chunks]

[Don’t] be envious [of] evil men & [don’t] desire to be with them. For their heart [plans violence] & their lips talk of [trouble.]

A house is [built] through wisdom & by understanding, it is established & by knowledge [its rooms] shall be filled with precious & pleasant riches. A wise man is strong. [Yes,] a man of knowledge increases strength.

By wise [advice] you shall [decide to] make war & [with] a multitude of counselors, there is safety. Wisdom is too [lofty] for a fool: he [doesn’t] open his mouth [at] the gate. He [who plots] to do evil shall be called a person [who causes harm.]

[Isaiah 14:22 Don’t [those who] devise evil [go astray?] But mercy & truth shall be [for those who] devise good.] The thought of [what is foolish] is sin & [those who look down on others] is an abomination to men.

If you faint [on] the day of [trouble,] your strength is [weak.] If you [refuse] to deliver [those who are scheduled for] death & [those who] are ready to be [killed] & if you [say, Look] we [didn’t] know it; doesn’t [the Lord God, Who thinks very carefully about what’s in] the heart, [realize] it?

[Doesn’t He, Who] keeps your soul know it? [Shouldn’t] He [give] to every man according to his [deeds?] [Revelation 22:12-13 And, watch, I come quickly & My reward is with Me & shall be to give every man according [to] his [deeds.] I Am [the] Alpha & [the] Omega, the Beginning & the End, the First & the Last.]

My son, eat honey, because it is good & the honeycomb is sweet to taste. So, [the same] shall be the knowledge of wisdom to your soul. When you have found it, then there shall be a reward & your [hope] shall not be cut off. 

O wicked man [don’t] lay [in] wait [to ambush] the [house] of the righteous. [Don’t plunder] his place [he rests.] For a just man [falls] 7 times & [rises] up again: but the wicked shall fall into [trouble.]

[Don’t] rejoice when your enemy falls & [don’t] let your heart be glad when he [stumbles:] lest the Lord [sees] it & it [displeases] Him & He [turns] His [anger] away from him [to you.] 

[Don’t worry] yourself, because of evil men & neither [shall] you be envious [of] the wicked. For there shall be no reward to the evil man. The candle of the wicked shall be put out.

My son, fear [respect] the Lord & the king. [Don’t get involved] with [those who] are given to change: for their [trouble] shall [arise] suddenly & who knows the ruin of them both? These [sayings] also belong to the wise.

It isn’t good to have [undeserved] respect of [people] in judgment. He [who says] to the wicked, You are righteous: the people shall curse him & the nations shall [loathe] him. But to [those who scold] him, shall be delight & good blessings shall come upon them. 

Every man shall kiss [the lips] that give [the] right answer. Prepare your work [outside] & make the field [in good condition] for yourself & afterward build your house.

[Don’t] be a witness against your neighbor without a [reason] & [don’t] deceive [others] with your lips. [Don’t] say, I will do to him [just] as he [has] done to me. I will [give] to a man, according to his [deeds.]

[Romans 12:17-18 [Don’t repay any] man evil for evil [done.] Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it [is] possible, as much as you [are able,] live [peacefully] with all men.] 

I went by the field of the [lazy] & the vineyard of the man [without] understanding & [saw] it was all grown over with thorns & [stickers that] had covered the [its surface] & [its] stone wall was broken down. 

Then, I saw & [thoroughly] considered it & received instruction. [Still,] a little [more] sleep, a little [more] slumber & a little [of] folding hands to [rest:]  [so] shall your poverty come [upon you like a prowler who] travels [to get away] & you [are wanted like] an armed man.
