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 105:1-45 Book# 4 of Psalms

 

Psalm 105:1-45            Book# 4 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

O Give thanks to the Lord & call upon His Name. Make known His deeds among the people. [Psalm 33:6-8 By the Word of the Lord, the heavens were made & all the [stars] of them, by the breath of His mouth. 

He gathered the waters of the sea together [like a] heap. He lay up the [deep waters] in storehouses. Let all the earth fear [respect] the Lord & let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.] 

Sing unto Him & sing psalms to Him. Talk of all His wondrous works & [glorify] His Holy Name. Let the hearts of [those who] seek the Lord rejoice. Seek the Lord & His strength. Seek His face [for] evermore. Remember His marvelous works that He's done & His wonders & judgments [from] His mouth.

O you [descendants] of Abraham, His servant & you children [people] of Jacob [a.k.a. Israel,] His chosen. He is the Lord our God. His judgments are in all the earth.

He has remembered His covenant [contract] forever. The Word [that] He commanded to 1,000 generations. [This] covenant He made with Abraham & His oath to Isaac. [Galatians 3:16-18 Now, to Abraham & his seed, the promises were made. He [didn't] say, And to the seeds, [like] of many, but as of One. 

And to your seed, which is Christ. And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before [from] God, in Christ, the Law which was 430 years [later,] can't [make it void or ineffective.] For if the inheritance [is] of the Law, it is no [longer] of promise, but God gave it to Abraham by promise.] 

And [God] confirmed the same to Jacob for a Law & to Israel for an everlasting covenant: saying, Unto you, I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.

[Genesis 15:18 [On] the same day, the Lord made a covenant with Abram, [a.k.a. Abraham,] saying, Unto your seed, I have given this land, from the river of Egypt, to the great Euphrates River!]

When they were [just] a few men in number; [yes,] very few, & strangers in it. [Deuteronomy 7:7-9 The Lord didn't [put] His love upon you, nor choose you, because you were more in number than any [other] people.

For you [had] the fewest of all people: but because the Lord loved you & because He would keep the oath [that] He had sworn to your [forefathers.] [That's why] the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand & redeemed you out of the house of bond men, from [under] the hand of Pharaoh, [Egypt's] king. 

Therefore, know that the Lord your God, He Is God, the faithful God, [Who] keeps covenant & mercy with [those who] love Him & keep His commandments to a 1,000 generations.] 

When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people; He [allowed] no man to do them wrong. [Yes,] He [reprimanded] kings, for their sakes, saying, [Don't] touch [My] anointed & do My prophets [any] harm. [Genesis 12:17 And the Lord plagued Pharaoh & his house with great plagues, because of Sarai, [a.k.a. Sarah,] Abraham's wife.] 

[Additionally,] He called for a famine upon the land & He [ceased] the whole [supply] of bread. He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant: whose feet they hurt with [shackles] & he was [chained] in iron. Until the time that His Word came. The Word of the Lord [tested] him.

[Genesis 41:25-27 And Joseph said to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one. God has [shown] Pharaoh what He is about to do. The 7 good [cows] are 7 years & the 7 good ears [of corn,] are 7 years. 

The dream is one. And the seven thin & [scrawny cows] that came up after them are 7 years. And the 7 empty ears blasted with the east wind, shall be 7 years of famine.] 

The king, even the ruler of the people, sent & [released] him & let him go free. [Pharaoh] made [Joseph] lord of [Pharaoh's] house & ruler of all his [possessions,] to [have control over Pharaoh's] princes & to teach his [elders] wisdom. 

[Genesis 41:53-55 And the 7 [plentiful] years, that was in the land of Egypt, ended. And the 7 years of [famine came, like] Joseph had said & the [famine] was in all lands; [but] in all the land of Egypt, there was bread. 

And when all the land of Egypt was [starving,] the people cried [out] to Pharaoh for bread. And Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph & do what he says to you.]

Israel, [a.k.a. Jacob,] also came into Egypt & Jacob [stayed] in the land of Ham. And [the Lord God] increased His people greatly & made them stronger than their enemies. He turned their heart to hate His people & to deal with His servants [shrewdly.]  

[Exodus 1:12-14 But the more they afflicted [the Israelites,] the more they multiplied & grew. And [the Egyptians] were grieved, because of the children [people] of Israel. And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigor & they made their lives bitter, with hard bondage, in mortar, brick & all [types] of service in the field. All the service they made them [do,] was with rigor.]

He sent Moses, His servant & Aaron, whom He had chosen. They [declared] His signs among them & wonders in the land of Ham. He sent darkness & made it dark & they [didn’t] rebel against His Word. He turned their waters into blood & [killed] their fish.

Their land brought forth frogs in abundance & in their [king's rooms.] He [spoke] & there came [various] sorts of flies & lice in all their coasts. He gave them hail for rain & flaming fire in their land. He [struck] their vines & also their fig trees & [broke] the trees of their coasts. 

He [spoke] & the locusts & caterpillars came without number & [ate] up all the [vegetation] in their land & devoured the [produce] of their ground. He also [struck] all the firstborn in their land, the [best] of all their strength. 

He also brought them [out] with silver & gold & there wasn't [any who were] feeble [people] among their tribes. Egypt was glad when they [left:] for the fear of them fell upon [the Egyptians.] He spread a cloud for a covering & fire to give light in the night.

The people asked & He brought quails & satisfied them with the bread of heaven, [a.k.a. manna.] He opened the rock & the waters gushed out & they ran in the dry places like a river. For He remembered His holy promise & Abraham, His servant. And He brought [out] His people with joy & His chosen with gladness & gave them the lands of the heathen & they inherited the labor of the people. 

[Genesis 15:18-21 [On] the same day, the Lord made a covenant [contract] with Abram, [a.k.a. Abraham,] saying, Unto your [descendants] I have given this land, from the [Brook] of Egypt [all the way] to the great Euphrates River: the [land of the:] Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites & also the Hittites, the Perizzites & the Rephaims & the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites & the Jebusites.]  [So,] that they might observe His [mandates] & keep His Laws. Praise, you the Lord.
