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 45:1-17 Book# 2 of Psalms

 

To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil [a.k.a. Maskil,] A Song of [Love.]

Psalm 45:1-17            Book# 2 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

My heart is [composing] [what is] a [virtuous] matter. My tongue is the pen of a [prepared] writer. I speak of things [I have expressed about] the king. You are [more fair] than the children of men. Therefore, God has blessed you forever & has poured grace into your lips. 

[Strap up] your sword upon your thigh, O most mighty, with your glory & your majesty. In your majesty, ride & [prosper, on behalf of:] truth, [humility] & righteousness. 

And your right hand shall teach you terrible things. Your arrows are sharp [within] the heart of the king's enemies. [By this,] the people fall under you.

* O God, Your throne is forever & ever. The scepter of Your kingdom is a [righteous] scepter. [Psalm 93:2 Your throne [was] established of old. You are from everlasting.] 

You love righteousness & hate wickedness. Therefore, God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your [companions.] All your [clothing] smells of myrrh, aloes & cassia, out of the ivory palaces, [which] have made you glad.

KIng's daughters were among your honorable women. [At] your right hand, the queen in [the] gold of Ophir [stood.]  [Pay attention] & [lean] your ear [to hear,] O daughter & consider [forgetting] your own people & your father's house. 

[Ruth 1:16 And Ruth said, [Don't ask] me not to leave you, or to return from following after you. For [where] you [go,] I will go. And where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people shall be my people & your God, [shall be] my God.] 

The king shall greatly desire Your beauty. For [God] is your Lord & you worship Him. The daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift, even the rich people shall [seek] your favor.

The king's [daughter's] clothing is of [fashioned] gold & within her, is glorious. She shall be brought to the king in [clothing] of needlework. Her companions, the virgins, [who] follow her, shall be brought to you.

They shall be brought with gladness & rejoicing & they shall enter into the king's palace. Instead of your [forefathers,] shall be your children, whom you may make princes [throughout] the earth. 

I will make your name remembered [through] all generations. Therefore, the people shall praise you forever & ever.
