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 48:1-14 Book# 2 of Psalms

 

A Song & Psalm for the sons of Korah.

Psalm 48:1-14            Book# 2 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

In the city of our God, Great is the Lord & greatly to be praised, in the mountain of His holiness. 

[Psalm 66:4-6 All the earth shall worship You & shall sing to You. They shall sing to Your Name. Selah. Come & see the [miracles] of God. He is [terribly awesome] in [what] He does toward the children of men. He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the flood on foot & there, we did rejoice in Him.] 

Mount Zion, the city of the great King, [is] [beautifully situated,] on the sides of the north, the joy of the whole earth. [Psalm 50:2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shined.] 

God is known in [Mount Zion's] palaces, [as] a refuge. For, [look,] the kings were assembled together & passed by [it] together. So, they marveled, [when] they saw it. They were troubled & [hurried] away. Fear took hold [of] them there, [like] the pain of a woman in [childbirth.] 

[Exodus 15:13-18 You in Your mercy has led the people [out, whom] You have redeemed. You have guided them in Your strength to Your holy [residence.] The people shall hear & be afraid. Sorrow shall take hold of [Philistia's] inhabitants. 

Then, the dukes of Edom shall be amazed. Trembling shall take hold of the mighty men of Moab. All [Canaan's] inhabitants shall melt away. Fear & [anxiety] shall fall upon them. 

By the greatness of Your arm, they shall be as still as a [rock, until] the people pass over. O Lord, [until] the people pass over, [whom] You have purchased. You shall bring them in, O Lord, in the Sanctuary, which Your hands have established. The Lord shall [rule] forever & ever.]

You break the ships of Tarshish with an east wind. [Just] as we have heard, we have [also] seen in the city of the Lord of Hosts, in the city of our God. God will establish [the city] forever. Selah.

In the midst of Your temple, we have thought of Your loving kindness. Your right hand is full of righteousness. O God, according to Your Name, so is Your praise unto the ends of the earth. 

[Malachi 1:11 From [sunrise] even to [sunset,] My Name shall be great among the Gentiles & in every place that incense shall be offered to My Name. A pure offering to My Name, shall be great among the heathen, says the Lord of Hosts.] 

Let Mount Zion rejoice & let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of Your judgments. Walk [around] Zion & go [around] her & [count its] towers. [Remember] you well, her [castle walls.] Consider her palaces, [so] you may tell it to the following generation. 

For this God, is our God forever & ever. He will be our guide, even to death. [Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I will fear no evil. For You are with me. Your rod & Your staff, they comfort me.]
