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 104:1-35 Book# 4 of Psalms

 

Psalm 104:1-35            Book# 4 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, You are very great. You are clothed with honor & majesty. Who covered yourself with Light [like] with a garment. Who stretched out the heavens like a curtain. 

[John 1:9-12 That was the true Light, [Who enlightens] every man, [Who] comes into the world. He was in the world & the world was made by Him & the world [didn't] know Him.

* He came unto His own & His own [didn't] receive Him. But as many as received Him, He gave power to them to become the sons of God, even to [those who] believe [in] His Name.] 

Who lays the beams of His [rooms] in the waters. Who makes the clouds His chariot. Who walks upon the wings of the wind. [Amos 9:6 It is He, [Who] builds His [stairs to the different] stories in heaven & has [established] His troop [of followers on] the earth. He, [Who] calls the waters of the sea & pours them out upon the [surface] of the earth. The Lord is His Name.]

Who makes His Angels, Spirits & His ministers, a flaming fire. [Acts 2:2-4 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven [like] of a rushing, mighty wind. And it filled all the house where they were sitting. 

And there appeared to them cloven tongues like as of fire & sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, [a.k.a. Holy Spirit] & began to speak with other [languages] as the Spirit gave them utterance.]

Who laid the foundations of the earth, [so] that it should not be removed forever. You covered it with the deep, [like] with a garment. The waters stood above the mountains.

[Genesis 1:9-10 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place & let the dry land appear & it was so. And God called the dry land, Earth & the gathering together of the waters, He called Seas & God saw that it was good.]

At Your [scolding] [the waters] fled & at the [sound] of Your thunder, they [hurried] away. They go up by the mountains & they go down by the valleys into the place [that] You have [created] for them. You have [put a boundary] that they may not pass over, [so] that they [don't return] again to cover the earth. 

[Genesis 9:11-13 And I will establish My covenant [contract] with You. Neither shall all flesh be cut off anymore by the waters of a flood & neither shall there be a flood any more to destroy the earth. 

And God said, This is the [sign] of the covenant, which I make between Me & you & every living creature that is with you, for [future] generations. I do [put] My [rainbow] in the cloud & it shall be a [sign] of a covenant between Me & the earth.]

He sends the [rivers] into the valleys, which run among the hills. They give drink to every [animal] of the field & the wild [donkey's] quench their thirst. By [these rivers,] the [birds] of the heaven, which sing, among the branches, have their habitation. 

He waters the hills from His [rooms] & the earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works. He causes the grass to grow for the cattle & the herb for the service of man, [so] that he may bring forth food out of the earth. 

And wine that makes the heart of man glad & oil to make his face shine & bread that strengthens a man's heart. The trees of the Lord are full of sap. He has planted the cedars of Lebanon, where the birds make their nests. As for the stork, the fir trees are her house. 

The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats & the rocks for the [rock badgers.] He appointed the moon for seasons & the sun knows [its] going down. [Genesis 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night. And let them be for signs & for seasons & for days & for years.] 

You make darkness & it is night, [in which] all the [animals] of the forest do creep [out.] The young lions roar after their prey & they seek their meat from God. The sun arises & they gather themselves together & lay [themselves] down in their dens. 

Man goes [out] to his work, [for him] to labor until the evening. O Lord, how [many] Your works are! You have made them all in wisdom. The earth is full of Your riches. So, is this [immense] & wide sea, [in which] are [numerous] creeping things, both small & [large creatures.] 

[Psalm 40:5 O Lord my God, many are Your wonderful works, which You have done & Your thoughts which are [toward] us. They can't be [calculated] up in order [to give credit] to You. If I would speak of them & declare [them,] they are more than can be [counted.] 

The ships go there, [where] Leviathan is, whom You [have] made to play [in there.] All these wait upon You, [so] that You may give them their [food] in due season. They gather [what] You give them. 

You open Your hand & they are filled with good [things.] You hide Your face & they are troubled. You take away their breath & they die & they return to [the dirt.] You sent [out] Your Spirit & they are created. And You renew the [surface] of the earth. 

The glory of the Lord shall endure forever. The Lord shall rejoice in His works. [Genesis 1:31 And God saw everything that He had made & [saw that] it was very good. And the evening & the morning were the 6th day.]

He looks [upon] the earth & it trembles. He touches the hills & they smoke. [Habakkuk 3:10-13 The mountains saw You & they trembled. The overflowing [waters] passed by & the deep [waters] uttered [its] voice & lifted up [its] hands on high. 

The sun & the moon stood still in their [place:] at the [lightning] of Your arrows [as] they went & at the shining of Your glittering spear. You [marched] through the land in indignation. You did thresh the heathen in anger. 

You went [out] for [the] Salvation of Your people, even for the Salvation [of] Your anointed. You wounded the head [from] the house of the wicked, by [exposing] the [foundations] even [up] to the neck. Selah.] 

I will sing to the Lord as long as I live. I will sing praise to my God, while [I'm alive.] My [thoughts] of Him shall be sweet. I will be glad in the Lord. Let the sinners be [destroyed] out of the earth & let the wicked no [longer exist.] Bless you the Lord, O my soul. Praise you the Lord.
