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.

Exodus 26:1-37 How to Make the Tabernacle of the Lord- by the Lord God’s Intelligent Design

 

How to Make the Tabernacle of the Lord- by the Lord God’s Intelligent Design

Exodus 26:1-37            The Second Book of Moses Called Exodus

[Also,] you shall make 10 curtains for the tabernacle made of fine [woven] linen & blue, purple & scarlet thread with [artistic designs] of cherubim [angels] [woven] into [each] of the ten 28 x 4 cubit curtains. 5 curtains shall be coupled to one another [just as] the other 5 curtains [are] coupled to one another. 

You shall make 50 loops of blue on the edge of [each] of the 2 sets of curtains, so they may be [hooked] to one another & coupled with 50 [hooks] of gold, on the [outermost] edge, [so] that it may be one tabernacle. You shall also make 11 curtains of goat’s hair [each] 30 x 4 cubits to be a [tent like] covering over the tabernacle. 

5 curtains shall be coupled by themselves & the [other] 6 curtains by themselves & you shall double over the 6th curtain at the forefront of the tabernacle. You shall make 50 loops on the outermost edge of [each] of the 2 sets of curtains, [so] that the edge of 1 curtain [is] coupled [together to] the 2nd. You shall make 50 brass [hooks] put into the loops, so that it may be one. 

The ½ curtain remnant that remains, shall hang over the back side of the tabernacle. There will be 1 cubit on [both] sides that remains [of] the length of the tent curtains & it shall hang over [either of the 2] sides of the tabernacle to cover it. You shall make a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red & a covering above [that] of badger skins. 

The boards for the tabernacle shall be [upright] of 10 x 1½  cubits for [each] board made of shittim wood. [All the] boards shall have 2 tenons, set in order, one against another, [for binding one to another.] You shall make all the boards of the tabernacle [like this.] 

On the north & south sides of the tabernacle, you shall make for [each] of the 20 boards, with 40 sockets of silver under them: 2 sockets under [each] board for [its] 2 tenons. For the far, westward side you shall make 6 boards & 2 boards for [each of] the 2 back corners of the tabernacle on the 2 sides. They shall be coupled together beneath & above the [top] of it into 1 ring. 

Both shall be [like this.] They shall be for [both] of them for the 2 corners. [So, there] shall be 8 boards [with] 16 sockets of silver- 2 sockets under [each] of the boards. You shall make 5 [cross] bars of shittim wood for 1 side of the tabernacle. And 5 [cross] bars for the other side of the tabernacle & 5 [cross] bars for the boards, for the 2 [westward] sides of the tabernacle. 

And the middle bar shall pass through the midst of the boards [horizontally] from [end to end.] You shall [overlay all] the boards with gold & make their rings of gold for places for the bars [to be inserted] & [overlay] the bars with gold. You shall [raise] up the tabernacle by the pattern you were shown on the mountain.

You shall make a [veil woven] of blue, purple & scarlet thread & fine [woven] linen of [skillful] work. It shall be [woven] with an [artistic design] with cherubim [angels.] You shall hang it [veil] upon the 4 pillars of shittim wood [overlaid] with gold.

Their hooks shall be gold upon the 4 sockets of silver & the veil shall be [hung] from the [hooks.] [Then,] you shall bring the Ark of the Testimony [in there, within] the veil. The veil shall be [a divider] for you between the Holy Place & the Most Holy. And you shall put the mercy seat upon the Ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy Place.

You shall set the table [outside] the veil & the candlestick [next to] the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south & you shall put the table on the north side. 

You shall make a hanging [screen] for the door of the tent [woven] of blue, purple & scarlet thread & fine [woven] linen [made] with needlework. You shall make for the hanging [screen,] 5 pillars of shittim wood [overlaid] with gold with gold hooks & you shall cast 5 sockets of brass for them.
