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 30:1-12 Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

 

A Psalm & Song at the Dedication of the House of David. 

Psalm 30:1-12            Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

I will [sing the praises of] You, O Lord. For You have lifted me up & haven't made my foes rejoice over me. O Lord, my God, I have cried [out] to You & You have healed me. 

O Lord, You have brought my soul up from [going to] the grave. You have kept me alive, [so] I [wouldn't] go down to the pit. [Psalm 89:13 For great is Your mercy toward me & You have delivered my soul from the lowest hell.]

Sing to the Lord, O you saints of His & give thanks at the [memory] of His holiness. For His anger [endures only] a moment, but joy comes in the morning. In my prosperity I said, I shall never be [removed.]

You did hide Your face & I was troubled. Lord, by Your favor, You have made my mountain stand strong. I cried [out] to You, O Lord & made my [appeals] to the Lord. 

What [benefit] is there in my [bloodshed,] when I go down to the pit [in death?] Shall the [dirt] praise You? Shall it declare Your Truth? O Lord, hear & have mercy on me.

You [are] my helper, Lord. You [have] turned my mourning into dancing. You have put off my sackcloth & [clothed] me with gladness, [in order] that I will not be silent, O Lord, my God & may [glorify,] sing praise to You & give thanks to You forever.
