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 130:1-8 Book# 5 of Psalms

A Song of Degrees, [a.k.a. Steps.]

Psalm 130:1-8            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

I have cried [out] to You, O Lord, out of the depths. [Psalm 107:23-26 [Those who] go down to the sea in ships that do business in [large] waters; these see the works of the Lord, & His wonders, [a.k.a. miracles,] in the deep. For He [commands,] & [raises] the stormy wind, which [lifts] up [its] waves, They mount up to the heaven, & they go down again to the depths. Their soul [melts,] because of trouble.]

Lord, hear my voice, & let Your ears be attentive to the [sound] of my [prayers.] [Psalm 107:27-31 They reel [back, & forth,] & stagger like a [drunk] man, & are at their wit's end. Then, in their trouble, they cry [out] to the Lord, & He [brings] them out of their [distress.] He [makes] the storm calm, so that the waves are still. Then, they are glad, because they [are peaceful,] so He [brings] them to their desired [harbor.] Oh, that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, & for His wonderful works, [a.k.a. miracles, for] the children of men!]

Lord, if You [should keep track of sins,] O Lord, who shall stand? [Revelation 6:15-17 And kings of the earth, & the great men, & the: rich men, chief captains, [a.k.a. leaders,] mighty men, & every [bound man,] & every free man, hid themselves in the dens, [a.k.a. caves,] & in the rocks of the mountains. And 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?]

But with You, there is forgiveness, [so] that You [may] be feared, [a.k.a. respected.] I wait for the Lord. My soul [waits,] & I do hope [on] His Word. [Titus 3:4-7 But after that, the kindness & love of God our Savior toward man appeared. Not by [righteous] works, [a.k.a. deeds,] we have done, but according to His mercy. 

He saved us, by the [cleansing, spiritual restoration,] & renewing [by] the Holy Ghost, [a.k.a. Holy Spirit.] Which He abundantly shed on us, through Jesus Christ our Savior. [So,] that, [by] being justified by His grace, we should be made heirs, according to the hope of Eternal Life.] 

My soul [waits] for the Lord, more than [those who] watch for the morning. I say, more than [those who] watch for the morning. Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, & with Him redemption is [plentiful.] 

[Isaiah 55:6-7 Seek you the Lord, while He may be found, & you call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked [abandon] His [ways,] & the unrighteous man his thoughts. And let him return to the Lord, & He will have mercy upon him, & to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.] 

And He shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. [Titus 2:13-14 [While] looking for that blessed hope, & the glorious [appearance] of the great God & our Savior, Jesus Christ; Who gave Himself for us, [so] that He might redeem us from all [sin,] & purify to Himself a [special] people, zealous of good works, [a.k.a. deeds.]
