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.

Leviticus 17:1-16 Not to Sacrifice to Demons, but Only to the Lord Your God

 

Not to Sacrifice to Demons, but Only to the Lord Your God

Leviticus 17:1-16          The Third Book of Moses Called Leviticus

The Lord [spoke] to Moses, saying, Speak to Aaron, his sons & the children [people] of Israel & say to them, The Lord has commanded this thing, [Whatever] man of Israel [who] kills an ox, lamb, or goat in the camp, or [outside] the camp,

And [he who doesn’t] bring it to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an offering to the Lord [in front of] the tabernacle of the Lord; shall be [guilty for shedding blood.] That man shall be cut off from among his people:

[In order] that the [people] of Israel, may [now] bring their sacrifices [that] they offer in an open field, to the Lord [to] the door of the tabernacle of the congregation to the priest & offer them for peace offerings to the Lord [God.]

The priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation & burn the fat for a sweet [aroma] to the Lord. They shall [no longer] offer their sacrifices to [demons,] after whom they have [been unfaithful like a harlot.] This shall be a state for ever to them thought their generations.

[Psalm 106:35-38 But [they] were mingled among the heathen & learned their [deeds.] and they served their idols: which were a snare to them. [Yes,] they sacrificed their sons & their daughters to [demons.] and shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons & their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan & the land was polluted with blood.] 

And you shall say to them, [Whatever] man there [is] of the house of Israel, or of the strangers [who stay] among you, [who] offer a burnt offering or sacrifice & [don’t] bring it to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it to the Lord. Even that man shall be cut off from among his people.

And [whatever] man there [is] of the house of Israel, or of the strangers [who stay] among you, that eat any [type] of blood, I will even set My face against that [life of who] eats blood & will cut him off from among his people. For the life of the [meat] is in the blood. And I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes an atonement for the soul.

[That’s why] I said to the children of Israel, No [person among] you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger [who stays] among you, eat blood. And [whatever] man there [is] of the children of Israel, or of the strangers [who stay] among you, [who] hunts & catches any [animal or bird] that may be eaten, shall even pour out [its] blood & cover it with dust. 

For it is the life of all flesh. The blood of it is for [its] life. Therefore, I say to the children of Israel, You shall eat the blood of no [type of flesh:] for the life of all flesh is [its] blood. [Whoever] eats it shall be cut off. 

And every [person who] eats [what] has died of itself, or [what] was torn [by animals,] whether [it’s someone] of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes & bathe himself in water & [will] be unclean until the [evening.] Then, he shall be clean. 

But if he [doesn't] wash [his clothes,] nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his [guilt.
