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 76:1-12 Book#3 of Psalm

 

A Psalm or Song of Asaph, to the chief Musician on Neginoth.

Psalm 76:1-12            Book#3 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

God is known in Judah. His Name is great in Israel. Also His tabernacle is in Salem, [a.k.a. Jerusalem] & His dwelling place in Zion. There, He [broke] the arrows of the bow, the shield, the sword & the battle. Selah. You are more glorious & excellent than the mountains of [plunder.] 

[Ezekiel 38:11-12 And You shall say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages to take [plunder & booty.] I will go to [those who] are at rest, that [live] safely, all of [those who dwell] without walls & [have] neither bars nor gates & to turn Your hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited & upon the people [who] are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten [livestock] & goods & [live] in the midst of the land.]

The [valiant] are [plundered] & they have slept their [final] sleep. And none of the men of [strength] have [raised] their hands. O God of Jacob, at Your [scolding,] both the chariot & the horse are cast into a dead sleep. [Exodus 14:26-28 And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch out your hand over the seas, [so] that the waters may [return] again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots & upon their horsemen. 

And Moses stretched [out] his hand over the sea & the sea returned to [its] strength when the morning appeared & the Egyptians fled against it. And the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. And the waters returned & covered the chariots, horsemen & all [Pharaoh's army, who] came into the sea after them. Not so much as one remained of them.] 

You, even You are to be feared [respected.]  When once You are angry, who may stand in Your sight? You [caused justice] to be heard from heaven. The earth feared and was still. [Psalm 46:8-11 Come [see] the works of the Lord, what desolations He has made in the earth. 

He makes wars to [stop] to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow, cuts the spear [into pieces] & burns the chariot in the fire. Be still & know that I Am God. I will be exalted among the heathen & I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of Hosts is with us. The God of Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel,] is our refuge.] 

When God arose to save all the meek of the earth, [through] judgment. Selah.  [Psalm 9:7-9 But the Lord shall endure forever. He has prepared His throne for judgment. And He shall judge the world in righteousness. He shall [administer justice] to the people [fairly.] The Lord will be a refuge in times of trouble & also a refuge for the oppressed.] 

Surely, the wrath of man shall praise You & You shall restrain the [rest] of wrath. [Joel 2:12-14 The Lord says, Therefore, also now, [return yourselves,] even to Me with all your heart, with fasting, weeping & mourning. 

And [tear apart] your heart & not your [clothing] & [return] to the Lord your God: for He is gracious & merciful, slow to anger & of great kindness & [sometimes He withdraws] the evil. Who knows if He will [come back & withdraw it] & leave a blessing behind Him; even a meat offering & a drink offering to the Lord your God?] 

Vow & pay [what you vowed] to the Lord your God. Let all [who are around] Him bring presents to Him, Who [should] be feared [respected.] He shall cut off the spirit of princes. He is [terribly awesome] to the kings of the earth.

[Psalm 68:35 O God, You are terrible out of Your holy places. The God of Israel is He, [Who] gives strength & power to His people. Blessed be God.]
