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.

Zechariah 10:1-12 They Went Their Way Like a Troubled Flock Without a Shepherd

 

They Went Their Way Like a Troubled Flock Without a Shepherd

Zechariah 10:1-12         The Book of Zechariah [in Smaller Chunks]

You, ask the Lord [for] rain, in the time of the latter rain, [a.k.a. Spring rain,] so [that] the Lord shall make [the] clouds bright, & give them showers of rain, to  [water] [everyone's] grass in the field. 

[Jeremiah 14:22 Are there any, among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? Or can the heavens give showers? Aren't You, He, O Lord our God? Therefore, we will wait upon You: for You have made all these things.] 

For the idols have spoken vanity, & the diviners have seen a lie, & have told false dreams. They comfort in vain. Therefore, they went [on] their way, [like] a flock. They were troubled, because there was no shepherd. [Jeremiah 23:1-2 The Lord says, Woe be to the pastors, [a.k.a. shepherds, who] destroy & scatter the sheep of My pasture! 

Therefore, The Lord God of Israel says [this] against the pastors, [who] feed My people; You have scattered My flock, & [have] driven them away, & haven't visited them. [Watch,] I will visit, [a.k.a. punish,] you [for] the evil of your [actions,] says the Lord.]

[My] anger [has grown] against the shepherds, & I punished the goats. For the Lord of Hosts has visited His flock, the house of Judah, & has made them [like] His [favorite] horse, in the battle. 

[Matthew 25:32-33 And all nations shall be gathered [in front of] Him. And He shall separate them one from another, [like] a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He shall [put] the sheep on His right hand [side,] but the goats on the left.]

Out of Him, came [out] the corner. [Luke 20:17-20 *And He [watched] them, & said, Then, what is this that is written, The stone [that] the builders rejected, the same [has] become the head of the corner? *[Whoever] shall fall upon that stone shall be broken. 

But on [whomever] it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. And the chief priests & scribes sought to lay hands on Him the same hour. And they feared the people: for they [realized] that He has spoken this parable against them. 

And they watched Him, & sent [out] spies, [who] should [pretend] themselves [to be] just men, [so] that they might take hold of His Words, so that they might deliver Him to the power & authority of the governor.]

Out of Him, [came] the nail. [Isaiah 22:22-23 *And I will lay upon His shoulder, the Key of the house of David, so He shall open, & none shall shut. And He shall shut, & none shall open. And I will fasten Him, [like] a nail in a [secure] place. And He shall be for a glorious throne [in] His Father's house.] 

Out of Him [came] the bow [for the] battle. [Revelation 6:2 And I [looked] & [saw] a white horse. And He, [Who] sat on him had a bow. And a crown was given to Him. And He went [out] conquering, & to conquer.] 

Out of Him, every oppressor [came] together. [Isaiah 60:14-15 Also, the sons of [those, who] afflicted you shall come bending to you. And all [those, who] despised you, shall bow themselves down at the soles of your feet. 

And they shall call you, The City of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel. [Since,] you [have] been [abandoned,] & hated, so that no man went through you, I will make you [of] eternal [excellence,] a joy [for] many generations.]

And they shall be [like] mighty men, [who] in battle [trample] down their enemies in the [mud] of the streets. And they shall fight, because the Lord is with them. And the [horse] riders shall be [put to shame.] [Psalm 18:42 Then, I did beat them [as fine] as the dust, [in front of] the wind. I did [throw] them out [like] the dirt in the streets.]

And I will strengthen the house of Judah, & I will save the house of Joseph. And I will [return] them again, to place them. For I have mercy upon them, & they shall be as though I hadn't cast them off. For I Am the Lord their God, & will hear them. 

[Isaiah 54:7-8 For a small moment I have [abandoned] you; but I will gather you with great mercies. In a little [anger,] I hid My face from you for a moment. But I will have mercy on you with everlasting kindness, says the Lord your Redeemer.]

And [those] of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, & their heart shall rejoice [like, by] wine. [Yes,] their children shall see it, & be glad. Their [hearts] shall rejoice in the Lord. [Psalm 104:15 And wine makes the heart of man glad. And oil [makes] his face shine, & bread strengthens [a] man's heart.] 

I will [whistle] for them, & gather them; for I have redeemed them. And they shall increase [like] they have [previously] increased. And I will sow them among the people. And they shall remember Me in far countries. And they shall live with their children, & [return] again.

[Hosea 2:23 And [on] the earth, I will sow her [like seed] to Me. And I will have mercy upon her, that hadn't obtained mercy. And I will say to [those, who] weren't My people, You are My people. And they shall say, You are my God.]

I will also bring them again out of the land of Egypt, & gather them out of Assyria. And I will bring them into the land of Gilead & Lebanon, [until no] more [places] shall be found for them. And with affliction, He shall pass through the sea, & shall [strike] the waves [of] the sea. 

And all the [deep] [waters] of the river shall dry up. [Exodus 14:21-22 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; & the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong [East] wind, all that night & made the sea dry land. 

And the waters were divided, & the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea, upon the dry ground. And the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, & one their left.] 

And [Assyria's] pride shall be brought down. [Isaiah 37:18-20 [Truthfully,] Lord, the kings of Assyria, have laid [to] waste all the nations & their countries. And have cast their gods into the fire. For they [weren't] gods, but the work of men's hands: wood & stone. 

Therefore, they have destroyed them. [For this reason,] now, O Lord our God, save us from his hand, [so] that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you Are the Lord, even Only You.] 

And the scepter of Egypt shall depart away. [Isaiah 19:1 The [vision about] Egypt. [Look,] the Lord rides upon a swift cloud, & shall come into Egypt. And the idols of Egypt shall be [removed] at His presence, & the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.] 

And I will strengthen them [about] the Lord. And they shall walk up & down in His Name, says the Lord.
