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.

Job 11:1-20 Zophar Responds to Job

 

Zophar Responds to Job

Job 11:1-20                                  Book of Job [in Smaller Chunks]

Then, Zophar, the Naamathite, answered & said, Shouldn't the multitude of [your] words be answered? And shouldn't a man full of talk be justified? Should your lies make men [remain silent?]

And shall no man make you ashamed when you mock? For you have said, My [principles are] pure & I'm clean in your eyes. But, oh that God would speak & open His lips against you & that He would show you the secrets of wisdom, [that] are double to [what] is! 

Therefore, know that God [requires] less [from] you than your [sin] deserves. Can you find out [about] God, by searching? Can you find out the perfection of [of] the Almighty? It is as high as heaven & what can you do? [It's] deeper than hell. What can you know?

[Its distance] is longer than the earth & [wider] than the sea. If [God] [cuts] off, [shuts] up, or [gathers] together [people,] who can hinder Him? Won't He consider it, for [God] knows vain men & He also sees wickedness?

[Psalm 10:13-14 O Lord, have mercy on me & consider my trouble which I suffer [from those who] hate me. You, [Who] lift me up from the gates of death: [so] that I may [display] all Your praise in the gates of the daughters of Zion, [a.k.a. Jerusalem,] & I will rejoice in Your Salvation.]  

For [then, a] vain man would be wise, [although] a man [is] born like a wild [mule’s] colt. If you prepare your heart & stretch out your hands toward Him & if [sin is within] your [hand’s reach,] put it far away & [don't] let wickedness dwell in your [tents.]

For then shall you lift up your face without [blemish.] [Yet,] you shall be steadfast & shall not [be fearful,] because you shall forget your misery & remember it [like flood] waters that [go] away.

And your [life] shall be [brighter] than [noon] & you shall shine forth & you shall be like the morning. [Psalm 37:6 And He shall bring forth your righteousness [like] the light & your [justice] like [at noon.] And you shall be secure, because there is hope.

[Yet,] you shall dig [around] you & shall take your rest in safety. [Psalm 3:5-6 I laid [myself] down & slept. I [awakened,] for the Lord sustained me. I won't be afraid of 10,000 people against & [around] me.]

Also, you shall lie down & none shall make you afraid. [Yet,] many shall make [a case against] you. But the eyes of the wicked shall fail & they shall not escape & their [only] hope shall be [like in] giving up the ghost.
