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 99:1-9 Book# 4 of Psalms

 

Psalm 99:1-9            Book# 4 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

The Lord [rules.] Let the people tremble. He sits between the cherubims. Let the earth be moved. [Exodus 25:22 From above the mercy seat, from between the 2 cherubims [that] are upon the Ark of the Testimony, I will meet with you there & I will [talk] with you [about] all things [that] I will give you in [commandments] to the children [people] of Israel.] 

The Lord is great in Zion & He is [exalted] above all the people. Let them praise Your great & [terribly awesome] Name; for it is Holy. The king's strength also loves judgment. You [established] equity & You [carry out justice] & righteousness in Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel.] 

You, exalt the Lord your God & worship at His footstool; for He is Holy. Moses, Aaron & Samuel [are] among His priests, [who called] upon His Name. They called upon the Lord & He answered them.

[1 Samuel 7:8-10 And the children of Israel said to Samuel, [Don't stop crying out] to the Lord our God for us, [so] that He will save us [from] out of the hand of the Philistines. And Samuel took a [suckling] lamb & offered it for a burnt offering [totally] to the Lord & Samuel cried [out] to the Lord for Israel. 

And the Lord heard him. And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel. But the Lord thundered on the Philistines with a great thunder that day & [defeated the Philistines] & they were [struck down before Israel.]

He [spoke] to them in the cloudy pillar. They kept His testimonies & His [mandates] that He gave them. [Exodus 19:17-20 And Moses brought [forward] the people out of the camp to meet with God & they stood at the [lowest] part of the [mountain.] 

And Mount Sinai was [totally smoking,] because the Lord descended upon it in fire. And the smoke [of it went up like] the smoke of a furnace & the whole [mountain] quaked greatly. 

And when the long sound [of the] trumpet sounded & [grew] louder & louder, Moses [spoke] & God answered him by a voice. And the Lord came down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the [mountain] & Moses went up.]

You answered them, O Lord our God. You [were] a God, [Who] forgave them, though You took vengeance [on their evil deeds.] [Exodus 32:21-24 And Moses said to Aaron, What did this people [do] to you that you have brought so great a sin upon them? Aaron said, [Don't] let the anger of my lord [grow] hot. 

You know the people, that they are set on [evil.] For they said to me, Make us gods, [that] shall go before us: as for Moses, we [don't know] what [has] become of him. And I said to them, [Whoever] has any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it [to] me. Then, I cast it into the fire & this calf came out there.]

Exalt the Lord our God & worship at His Holy hill; for the Lord our God is Holy.
