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.

Psalm 22:1-31 Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

A Psalm of David, to the chief Musician [on] Aijeleth.

Psalm 22:1-31            Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

My God, my God, why have You forsaken Me? Why [are] You so far from helping Me & from the words of my roaring? [Matthew 27:46 And about the 9th hour, Jesus cried [out] with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabach-thani? That is to say, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?]

O my God, I cry [out] in the daytime, but You [don't] hear. And in the night [time] & I'm not silent. But You are holy, O You, [Who] inhabits the praises of Israel. Our [forefathers] trusted in You. They trusted & You delivered them. They cried [out] to You & they were delivered. They trusted in You & weren't [ashamed.] 

But I am a worm & [not] man, [disapproved by] men & despised [by] the people. [Isaiah 53:3-5 He is despised & rejected [by] men. A man of sorrows & acquainted with grief. And we hid, [like] it were our faces, from Him. He was despised & we [didn't respect] Him. 

Surely, He has borne our griefs & carried our sorrows. Yet, we didn't [respect] Him, [struck] & smitten of God & afflicted. But He was wounded for our [sins.] He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement for our peace was upon Him. And with His stripes, we are healed.]

*All [those who] see Me, [mock] & laugh [at] Me, saying, *He trusted [in] the Lord, that He would deliver Him. Let Him deliver Him, [since] He delighted in Him. 

[Matthew 27: 41-43 Also, the chief priests [mocked] Him, with the scribes & elders & said, He saved others & He can't save Himself. If He [is] the KIng of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross & we will believe Him. He trusted in God. Let Him deliver Him now, if will have Him, for He said, I am the Son of God.] 

But You [are] He, [Who] took me [from] the womb. When I [nursed] upon my mother's breasts, You [cause] me to hope. You [are] my God, from my mother's belly. I was cast upon You from the womb. 

[Luke 1:34-35 Then, Mary said to the Angel, How shall this be, [since] I [don't] know a man [intimately?] And the Angel answered & said to her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon you & the power of the Highest shall overshadow you. Also, that Holy thing, [Who] shall be born of you, shall be called the Son of God.] 

[Don't] be far from me, for trouble is near. There [are] none to help. Many bulls have [surrounded] me: strong bulls of Bashan have [circled around] me. They gaped upon with their mouths [open wide, like] a [greedy,] roaring lion. 

[Lamentations 2:16 All Your enemies have opened their [mouths] against You. They hiss & gnash [their] teeth. They say, We have swallowed [Jerusalem] up. Certainly this is the day we looked for. We have found & we have seen it.]

I am poured out like water & all my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax. It is melted in the midst of my [stomach.] 

[Psalm 31:9-10 Have mercy upon me, O Lord. For I am in trouble & my eye is consumed with grief. [Yes,] my soul & my belly. For my life is spent with grief & my years with sighing. My strength fails, because of my [sin] & my bones [waste away.] 

My strength is dried up like [shards of pottery] & my tongue [clings] to my jaws. You have brought me into the [dirt] of death. 

[John 19:28-29 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, [so] that the scripture might be fulfilled, [said,] I thirst. Now, a vessel full of vinegar was set there & put upon hyssop & put to His mouth.] 

* For dogs have [surrounded] Me. The assembly of the wicked have [enclosed] Me. They pierced My hands & My feet. [Revelation 1:5-8 And from Jesus Christ, Who is the faithful witness & the first begotten of the dead & the Prince of the kings of the earth. 

Unto Him, [Who] loved us & washed us from our sins in His Own blood & has made us, kings & priests to God & His Father. To Him be glory & [power] forever & ever. Amen. [Look,] He comes with clouds & every eye shall see Him & also [those who] pierced Him.

And all [the families] of the earth shall wail, because of Him. Even so, Amen. I Am [the] Alpha & Omega, the Beginning & the Ending, says the Lord, [Who] is & [Who] was & [Who] is to come, the Almighty.] 

* I may tell all My bones: they look & stare upon Me. * They part My garments among them & cast lots on My vesture. [Fulfilled in Matthew 27:35-36 And they crucified Him & parted His garments, casting lots, [so] that it might be fulfilled, [what] was spoken by the prophet, They parted My garments among them & upon my vesture, they cast lots. And sitting down, they watch Him there.]

But, O Lord, [don't] be not far from me, O my strength, [hurry] to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog. [Proverbs 35:17 Lord, how long will You look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions & my darling from the lions.] 

Save me from the lion's mouth: for You have heard me from the horns of the unicorns. * I will declare Your Name to my brethren. In the midst of the congregation, I will praise you. [Acts 4:12 Neither is there Salvation in any other. For there is [no] other Name under heaven given among men, [by which] we must be saved.] 

All [who] fear [respect] the Lord, praise Him. All you [descendants] of Jacob, glorify Him & all you [descendants] of Israel, fear [respect] Him. For He hasn't despised nor [loathed] the affliction of the [suffering.] Neither has He hid His face from him. 

But when he cried [out] to Him, He heard. I will pay my vows before [those who] fear [respect] Him. My praise shall be of You in the great congregation. The meek shall eat & be satisfied & [those who] seek HIm, shall praise the Lord. 

Your heart shall live forever. [Matthew 5:5-6 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are [those who] hunger & thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.] 

All the [families] of the nations shall worship before You & all the ends of the world shall remember & [return] to the Lord. For the Kingdom is the Lord's & He is the [Ruler] among the nations.

[Revelation 21:3-4 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, [Look,] the tabernacle of God is with men. And He will dwell with them & they shall be His people. And God, Himself shall be with them & be their God. 

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. And there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying. Neither shall there be anymore pain. For the [previous] things [have] passed away.]

All [those who] are [rich] upon the earth, shall eat & worship. All [those who] go down to the [dirt, in death,] shall bow down before Him & [no one] can keep his own soul alive. A seed shall serve Him. It shall be [accounted] to the Lord for a generation.

[Revelation 22:16-17 I, Jesus have sent [My] Angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I Am the Root & the Offspring of David & the Bright Morning Star. And the Spirit & the bride say, Come. And let him [who] hears, say, Come. And let him [who] is [thirsty,] come. And [whoever] will, let him take the Water of Life freely.] 

They shall come & shall declare His righteousness to the people [who] shall be born, that He has done this.
