About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: Since the Lord had it on my heart to write this blog, 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 5:1-27 Eliphaz Continues to Chastise Job

Eliphaz Continues to Chastise Job

Job 5:1-27                                 Book of Job [in Smaller Chunks]

Call now, if there [are] any [who] will answer you; & to which of the saints [will] you turn? For [anger] [has] [killed] the foolish man, & envy slays the [simple minded.] I have seen the foolish taking root, but I suddenly cursed [the place he lived.] 

[Isaiah 45:20-21 Assemble yourselves, & come. Draw [close] together, you [who] are escaped [from] the nations. They have no knowledge, [who] set up the wood of their [carved] image, & pray to a god that cannot save. You tell [them,] & bring them near. 

[Yes,] let them [consult] together. Who has declared this from ancient [times?] Who has told it from that time? Haven’t I, the Lord? And there is no [other] God beside Me; a just God, & a Savior. There is none beside Me.]

His children are far from safety, & they are crushed in the gate. Neither is there any to deliver them. [Jeremiah 2:28 But where are your gods that you [have] made [yourselves?] Let them arise, if they can save you in your time of trouble. O Judah, for your gods are according to the number of your cities.]

Whose harvest [do] the hungry [eat] up, & even [take] it out of the thorns, & the robber [swallows] up their [possessions.] Although affliction [doesn't come out] of the [dirt,] neither does trouble [sprout] out of the ground. Yet man is born unto trouble, & [the words from his mouth,] fly [upwards like] sparks [from the campfire.] [James 3:5 Even so, the tongue is a little member [of a person's body,] & [boasts of] great things. [See,] how great a [problem,] a little fire [starts!]

[But as for me,] I would seek God, & I would [surrender] my [case] to God; [Who does] great & [marvelous] things; unsearchable, without number. Who [gives] rain upon the earth, & [sends] waters upon the fields: To set up on high those [who are lowly, so] that those [who] mourn may be exalted to safety. 

[The Lord God frustrates the plots] of the [devious,] so that their hands can't [carry out] their [plans.] [The Lord God takes] the wise in their own craftiness; & [those who listen to] the [plots of the devious are] carried [away] [head-first.]

Darkness [comes upon them] in the daytime, & [they] grope [at noon like] in the night. [Deuteronomy 28:29 And you [shall] grope at [noon, like] the blind [grope] in darkness, & you [shall] not prosper in your ways. And you [shall] only be: oppressed, & [plundered for] evermore, & no man shall save you.] 

But [the Lord God saves] the poor from the sword, from their [mouth's] [slander,] & from the hand of the mighty. So, the poor [have] hope, & the [sinful] mouth [is stopped.] [Look,] happy is the man whom God [corrects.] Therefore, [don't] despise [when] you are [corrected by] the Almighty. For He [makes] sore, & [bandages] up. [The Lord God] wounds, & His hands make whole. [Revelation 3:19 I [reprimand,] & [chastise] as many as I love. Therefore, be zealous, & repent.]

He shall deliver you in 6 troubles, [yes,] in 7, no evil shall touch you. [The Lord God] shall redeem you from death, in famine, & from the power of the sword in war. You shall be [hidden] from the [slanderous] tongue, & neither [shall] you be afraid of destruction, when it [comes.]

You [shall] laugh at destruction & famine. Neither [shall] you be afraid of the [wild animals] of the earth. For you [shall] be in [joined] with the stones of the field, & the [animals] of the field shall be at peace with you. 

And you [shall] know that your [tent] shall be in peace, & you [shall] visit [the place you reside,] & [shall] not sin. You [shall] also know that your [descendants] shall be [many,] & your offspring [shall be] [like] the grass of the earth.

You [shall] come to your grave [at your] full age, like a [stalk] of corn [ripens in its] season. [Look,] we have searched it [out,] & it is so. Hear it, & know it, for your [own] good.
