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.

Jeremiah 49:1-39 The Lord Will Bring Back the Children of Ammon From Captivity

 

The Lord Will Bring Back the Children of Ammon From Captivity

Jeremiah 49:1-39                               The Book of Jeremiah [in Smaller Chunks]

The Lord says [this about] the Ammonites. Hasn't Israel [any] sons? Hasn't he [any] heir? Why then, does their king inherit Gad & his people dwell in his cities? [Zephaniah 2:8-11 I have heard the [ridicule] of Moab & the [insults] of the children of Ammon, [by which] they have [disgraced] My people & have magnified themselves against their [borders.] 

Therefore, The Lord God of Hosts, The God of Israel, says, Surely, Moab shall be [like] Sodom & the children [people] of Ammon [like] Gomorrah, even the [multiplying] of the [sticker bushes] & the salt pits & shall be [continually desolate.] The [rest] of My people shall [plunder] them & possess them. 

They shall have this for their pride, because they have [ridiculed] & have magnified themselves against the people of the Lord of Hosts. The Lord will be terrible to them: for He will [reduce] all the gods of the earth [to nothing.] And men shall worship Him, everyone from his [own] place, even all the [coastal islands] of the heathen.] 

The Lord says, Therefore, [watch,] the days come that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah [for] the Ammonites. And it shall be a desolate heap & [its villages] shall be burned with fire. Then, Israel shall be [victor over those who] were his [victors,] says the Lord. 

O Heshbon, Howl, for Ai is [plundered.] Cry, you daughters of Rabbah & [clothe yourselves] with sackcloth. [Mourn] & run [back & forth] by the hedges. For their kings, priests & princes shall go into captivity together.

[Why do] you glorify [yourself] in the valleys, your flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? [Who] trusts in her treasures, saying, Who shall come to me? [Jeremiah 3:14-15 [Return,] O backsliding children, says the Lord. For I Am married, [a.k.a. committed] to you & I will take [from] you one [from] a city & two [from] a family & I will bring you to Zion. And I will give you pastors according to [My] heart, [who] shall feed you with knowledge & understanding.] 

The Lord God of Hosts says, [See,] I will bring fear [respect] upon you from all those [who are around] you. And you shall be driven out, every man right [away.] And [no one] shall gather up him, [who] wanders. And afterward, I will [return] again [those from] captivity of the children [people] of Ammon, says the Lord. 

The Lord of Hosts; says [this about] Edom: Is wisdom no [longer] in Teman? [Has advice] perished from the [wise?] [Has] their wisdom vanished? You, flee & [return] back & dwell in the [depths,] O [residents] of Dedan. For the time that I will visit, [a.k.a. punish] him, I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him.

If the grape gatherers come to you, wouldn't they leave some grapes [for] gleaning? If thieves [came at] night, they [would] destroy [until] they [had] enough. [For] I have made Esau [exposed] & I have uncovered his secret places & he shall not be able to hide himself. 

His [descendants,] brethren & descendants are [plundered] & he is [no more.] [Isaiah 17:14 And [look,] at [twilight] trouble & before [dawn] he is [no more.] This is the portion of [those who plunder] us & the lot of [those who] rob us.]

Leave your fatherless children & I will [keep] them alive. And let your widows trust in Me. [Psalm 146 9 The Lord [watches over] the strangers; He relieves the fatherless & widow. But He turns the [ways] of the wicked upside down.] 

For the Lord says [this; Look, those] whose judgment was not to drink from the cup, have [certainly drunk from it.] Are you he, [who] should go [totally] unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink of it. 

[Revelation 14:9-11 And the 3rd Angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man [worships] the beast & his image & [receives] his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out, without mixture into the cup of His indignation. 

And he shall be tormented with fire & brimstone in the presence of the Holy Angels & in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment [goes up] forever & ever. And they have no rest day, nor night, who worship the beast & his image & [whoever] receives the mark of his name.] 

For the Lord says, I have sworn by Myself, that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a [disgrace,] a [wasteland] & a curse. And all [its] cities shall be [continual wastelands.] I have heard [information] from the Lord, [that] an ambassador is sent to the heathen, saying, Gather [yourselves] together & come against her & rise up [for] the battle. 

For, [look,] I will make you [insignificant] among the heathen & despised among men. O you, who [live] in the [crevices] of the [rocks] & [holds] the heights of the [hills, although] you should make [yourself] a nest as high as an eagle. 

You have been deceived by your terribleness & the pride of your heart & I will bring you down from there, says the Lord. Edom shall also be a desolation: everyone, [who] goes by it shall be astonished & shall hiss at all [its] plagues. 

[Ezekiel 35:7-9 [Like this,] I will make Mount Seir [very] desolate & cut it off from him, [who leaves] & him, [who] returns. And they shall fall, [who] are slain with the sword & I will fill his mountains, hills & valleys & all your rivers with his [killed] men. I will make you [continually desolate] & your cities shall not return. And you shall know that I Am the Lord.] 

The Lord says, No man shall dwell in it, [like] in the overthrow of Sodom & Gomorrah & [its neighboring] cities. Neither shall a son of man dwell in it, [See,] he shall come up like a [proud] lion from the swelling Jordan [River,] against [where] the strong [live:] but suddenly, I will make [Edom] run away from her. 

And who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her? For who is like Me? And who will [schedule] the time [for] Me? And who is that shepherd, [who] will stand before Me? Therefore, hear the [advice] of the Lord, that He has taken against Edom & His [plans] that He has [intended] against the [residents] of Teman. 

Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out. He shall [certainly] make their [places where they dwell] desolate [along] with them. The earth [shakes] at the [sound] of their fall. The [sound] of the [out] cry was heard [near] the Red Sea. [Jeremiah 50:46 At taking Babylon, the earth is moved & the [sound of] the [out] cry is heard among the nations.]

[Look,] he shall come up & fly [like] an eagle & spread his wings over Bozrah. And [on] that day, the heart of [Edom's] mighty men, shall be [like] the heart of a woman in her [delivery pains.] [About] Damascus: Hamath & Arpad [are confused;] for they have heard [bad news] & they are [afraid.] 

There is sorrow on the sea & it can't be [quieted.] Damascus [has grown weak] & turns herself to flee, [but] fear has seized her. Anguish & sorrows have taken [hold of] her, [like] a woman [during delivery.] 

[Jeremiah 4:31 For I have heard a voice [like from] a woman in [labor.] And the anguish [like] her, [who delivers] her 1st child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, [who] spreads [out] her hands & [who] bewails herself, saying, Woe is me now! For my soul is [worn out] because of the murderers.] 

How [has] the city of praise not [been] left, the city of My joy! [Jeremiah 33:9 And it shall be to Me a Name of joy, [of] praise & honor before all the nations of the earth, [that] shall hear all the good that I do to them. And they shall fear [respect] & tremble for the goodness & all the prosperity that I [provide for] it.] 

Therefore, her young men shall fall in her streets & all the men of war shall be cut off [on] that day, says the Lord of Hosts. And I will [start] a fire [on] the wall of Damascus & it shall consume [Ben Hadad's] palaces. [Amos 1:4-5 But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, [that] shall devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.

I will also break the [gate's] bar of Damascus & cut off the [residents] from the Valley of Aven & he [who] holds the scepter from the house of Eden. The people of Syria shall go into captivity [all the way] to Kir, says the Lord.] 

[About:] Kedar & the kingdoms of Hazor, [that] Nebuchadrezzar, [a.k.a. Nebuchadnezzar, Babylon's] king, shall [defeat.] The Lord says [this;] You, arise & go up to Kedar & [plunder] the men of the East. 

[Judges 6:3-5 And it [happened,] when Israel had sown [seed,] that the Midianites; Amalekites; & even the children [people] of the East came up against them. And they [camped] against them & destroyed the [produce] of the earth, [all the way] to Gaza & left no [food] for Israel, neither sheep, ox, nor [mules.]

They shall take away their tents & flocks. They shall take [for] themselves their: curtains, vessels & their camels. And they shall cry [out] to them, Fear is on every side. [Jeremiah 46:5 [Why] have I seen them [discouraged & led astray?] And their mighty ones are beaten down & [have speedily] fled & [didn't] look back: for fear was [all around], says the Lord.] 

Flee, & get [yourself] far [away] & dwell [in the depths,] O you [residents] of Hazor, says the Lord. For [Nebuchadnezzar, Babylon's] king, has [gotten advice] against you & has conceived [a plan] against you. Arise & you [go] up into the wealthy nation, that dwells without care, [that] have neither gates, nor bars & [who] dwell alone, says the Lord. 

[Micah 7:15-17 I will [show] marvelous things to [them,] according to the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt. The nations shall see & be [confused] at all [Israel's strength.] They shall [cover] their mouth [with] their hand & their ears shall be [unable to hear.] They shall lick [up] dust like a [snake.] They shall move out of their holes like worms [in] the [ground] & they shall be afraid of the Lord our God & shall [be fearful, a.k.a. respectful,] because of You.] 

And their camels shall be a booty & the multitude of their [livestock, plunder.] And I will scatter [those who] are in the [furthest] corners into all [the] winds. And I will bring their calamity from all sides [of it,] says the Lord. And Hazor shall be a dwelling for [jackals] & a desolation forever. 

No man shall [stay] there, nor any son of man dwell in it. The Word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah, the prophet, against Elam [during] the beginning of [Zedekiah's rule,] of [Judah's] king, saying, The Lord of Hosts says [this; Look,] I will break the [archer's] bow of Elam, the [leader] of their [strength.] 

And I will bring upon Elam the 4 winds from the 4 [corners] of heaven & will scatter them toward all those winds. And there shall be no nation [where Elam's] outcasts shall not come [to stay.] For I will cause Elam to be [discouraged in front of] their enemies & [those who] seek their [lives.] And I will bring [disaster] upon them, even My fierce anger, says the Lord. 

And I will send the sword after them, [until] I have consumed them. [Deuteronomy 28:64 And the Lord shall scatter you among all people, from one end of the earth, even to the other. And you shall serve other gods there, [that] neither you, or your [forefathers] have known, even [of] wood & stone.] 

And I will [put] My throne in Elam & will destroy the king & princes from [there,] says the Lord. [Jeremiah 43:10 And say to them, The Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel says [this; Watch,] I will send [for] & take [Nebuchadnezzar, Babylon's] king, My servant & will [put] his throne upon these stones that I have [hidden] & he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.] 

But it shall [happen during] the latter days, that I will [return] again, [those from] Elam [from] captivity, says the Lord.
