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.

Deuteronomy 33:1-29 This is the Blessing From Moses Before He Passes Away

 

This is the Blessing From Moses Before He Passes Away

Deuteronomy 33:1-29     Deuteronomy the Fifth Book of Moses

This is the blessing [that] Moses, the man of God, blessed the children [people] of Israel before his death. He said, The Lord came from Sinai & rose up from Seir to them. He shined forth from Mount Paran & He came with 10,000 saints & from His right hand [was] a fiery law for them.

[Yes, the Lord God] loved the people & all His saints are in Your [hands.] They sat down at Your feet & everyone shall receive Your words. Moses commanded [the] law [to] us & even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob [a.k.a. Israel.] 

And [the Lord] was king in Jeshurun, when the [leaders] of the people & tribes were gathered together. Let Reuben live & not die & [let his men be many.] This is the blessing of Judah & [Moses] said, Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah & bring him to his people. 

Let his hands be sufficient for him & be a help to him from his enemies. Of Levi, [Moses] said, Let your Thummim & your Urim be with the Holy One, Whom you [tested] at Massah & [argued with] at the Waters of Meribah. 

Who said to his father & to his mother, I haven’t seen Him. Neither did he acknowledge his [brothers,] nor did he know his own children. For they have [obeyed] Your word & kept Your covenant [contract.] 

They shall teach Jacob Your judgments & Israel Your law. They shall put incense before You & burn whole [sacrifices] upon Your altar. Lord, bless his [possessions] & accept the work of his hands.

[Strike down those who] rise [up] against him & hate him, [so] they [don’t] rise again. Of Benjamin, [Moses] said, The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by Him. The Lord shall [shield] him all day long & he [stays] between the [Lord’s] shoulders.

Of Joseph, [Moses] said, Blessed of the Lord, for his land will have the precious things of heaven, [the] dew & the deep [waters below.] And the precious fruits [grown] in the sun & the precious [monthly harvest,] by the moon. And [with the best] things of the ancient mountains & the precious things of the hills [that last.] 

And for the precious things of the earth & [its] fullness & for the good will of [God, Who] dwelt in the [burning] bush. Let [blessings] come upon the top of [Joseph’s] head, [he who] was separated from his [brothers.]

His glory is like the [firstborn bull] & his horns are like the horns of [a wild ox.] He shall push [all] the people together, the 10,000’s of Ephraim & the 1,000’s of Manasseh, to the [furthest] ends of the earth.

Of Zebulun, [Moses] said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in your [journeys] & Issachar, in your tents. They shall call the people to the mountain. They shall offer sacrifices of righteousness there: for they shall [feast] on the abundance of the seas & the [hidden] treasures in the sand. 

Of Gad, [Moses] said, Blessed is he [who] enlarges [Gad’s territory.] He [lives like] a lion [to tear off an] arm with a [scalp.] [Gad saved] the 1st part for himself, [since it was] the portion of a lawgiver & [that was his position.] 

He came with the [leaders] of the people. He [administered] the [Lord’s] justice & [His regulations] for Israel. Of Dan, [Moses] said, Dan is a lion’s cub. He shall leap from Bashan. 

Of Naphtali, [Moses] said, O Naphtali is satisfied & full with favor & blessings of the Lord. You [will] possess the west & the south. Of Asher, [Moses] said, Let Asher be blessed with children.

Let him be acceptable to his [brothers] & let him dip his foot in oil. Your shoes shall be iron & brass. Your strength shall be [like iron & brass] all your days. There is none like the God of Jeshurun, Who rides upon heaven in [His excellence in] the sky [to] help you.

The eternal God is your refuge & [His] everlasting arms [are] underneath [you.] He shall [throw] out the enemy from before you & shall say, Destroy them. Then, Israel shall dwell in safety alone. The fountain of Jacob shall be on a land of [grain] & wine. Also, His [sky] shall drop down dew.

O Israel, You are happy. Who is like you, O people saved by the Lord [God, Who]  [is] your shield [for assistance] & Who is the sword of your [excellence!] Your enemies shall be found [to be] liars to you & you shall [trample] their high places. 

[Deuteronomy 12:2 You shall [totally] destroy all the places, [were] the nations [that] you shall possess, served their gods, upon the high mountains, upon the hills & under every green tree.]
