About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible::

About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: Since the Lord had it on my heart to write this blog, 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.

Isaiah 60:1-22 Arise & Shine for Your Light Has Come

Arise, & Shine for Your Light Has Come

Isaiah 60:1-22                                The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks]

Arise, & shine; for your Light [has] come, & the glory of the Lord [has] risen upon you. [Ephesians 5:14 [For this reason, [Isaiah says,] Awake, you [who] [sleep,] & arise from the dead, & Christ shall give you Light.]

For, [look,] the darkness shall cover the earth, & [extreme] darkness [shall cover] the people. But the Lord shall arise upon you, & His glory shall be seen upon you. 

[Acts 10:37-41  I say that Word, you know, [that] was [proclaimed] throughout all Judaea, & began from Galilee, after the baptism, [in] which John preached; How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost, [a.k.a Holy Spirit,] & with power. Who went [around] doing good, & healing all [who] were oppressed [by] the devil; for God was with Him. And we are witnesses of all things [that] He did, both in the land of the Jews, & in Jerusalem. Whom they slew & hanged on a [cross made from a] tree. *God raised Him up the 3rd day, & [showed] Him openly. Not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before [by] God, even to us, who did eat & drink with Him, after He rose from the dead.] 

*And the Gentiles shall come to Your Light, & kings to the brightness of Your rising. [Revelation 21:22-24 *And I saw no Temple [in there.] For the Lord God Almighty, & the Lamb are the Temple of it. *And the city had no need of the sun, & neither of the moon, to shine in it. For the glory of God did [enlighten] it, & the Lamb is the Light [of it.] And [those] nations [who] are saved, shall walk in the light of it. And the kings of the earth, [bring] their glory & [honor] into it.]

Lift up your eyes [around,] & see: all [those] [who] gather themselves together, come to you. Your sons shall come from far, & your daughters shall be nursed at your side. [Isaiah 49:20-22 The children [that] you [shall] have, after you [had] lost the [others,] shall say again in your ears, The place is too [small] for me. Give [a] place to me, [so] that I may dwell. 

Then, you [shall] say in your heart, Who [has] begotten, [a.k.a. given birth to,] these [for] me, [since] I have lost my children, & [I’m] desolate, a captive, [wandering] to & fro? And who [has] brought up these? [Look,] I was left alone, where had these been? 

The Lord God [says this, Look,] I will lift up [My] hand to the Gentiles, & [put] up My [banner for] the people. And they shall bring your sons [to adopt,] in their arms, & your daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. ] 

Then, you [shall] see, & flow together. And your heart shall fear, [a.k.a. respect,] [the Lord God,] & be enlarged; because the [troops] of Gentiles shall come to you, [like] the abundance of the sea shall be [diverted] to you. The multitude of camels shall cover you, the [camels] of: Midian, & Ephah; & all [those] from Sheba shall come. 

They shall bring gold, & incense; & they shall [proclaim] the praises of the Lord. [Matthew 2:7-11 Then, when Herod had [privately] called the wisemen, & diligently [inquired from] them, what time the star appeared, And [Herod] sent them to Bethlehem, & said, Go, & diligently search for the young Child. And when you have found Him, bring me word again, [so] that I may come, & also worship Him. When they had heard the king, they departed; & [saw,] the star, [that] they saw in the East, went [in front of] them, [until] it came & stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced [exceedingly with] great joy. And when they [came] into the house, they saw the young child with Mary, His mother, & [the wisemen] fell down, & worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented to Him gifts: gold, frankincense, & myrrh.] 

All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together to you. The rams of Nebaioth shall minister to you. They shall come up on [My] altar with acceptance, & I will glorify the house of My glory. Who are these [who] fly [like] a cloud, & [like] the doves [fly] to their windows [to roost?] 

Surely, the [coastal] [islands] shall wait for Me, & the ships of Tarshish. First, to bring your sons from far [away,] & their silver & gold with them, unto the Name of the Lord your God, & to the Holy One of Israel, because He has glorified you. 

[Psalm 72:10-14 The kings of Tarshish, & the [coastal islands,] shall bring presents, & the kings of: Sheba, & Seba shall offer gifts. [Yes,] all kings shall fall down before Him; & all nations shall serve Him. For He shall deliver the needy when he [cries] [out,] & also the poor, & him [who has] no [one to] [help.] He shall spare the poor & needy, & shall save the souls, [a.k.a. lives,] of the needy. He shall redeem their [life] from [oppression,] & violence. And their blood shall be precious in His sight.]

And the sons of strangers shall [rebuild] your walls, & their kings shall minister to you: for in My [anger] I [afflicted] you, but I have had mercy on you, in My [kindness.] 

[Zechariah 6:15 And [those who] are far [away,] shall come, & [rebuild] in the [Lord’s] temple, & you shall know that the Lord of Hosts [has] sent Me to you. And this shall [happen,] if you [sincerely] obey the voice of the Lord your God.] 

Therefore, your gates shall be open continually. They shall not be shut day nor night; [so] that men may bring to you the [troops] of the Gentiles, & [so] that their kings may be brought. 

[Revelation 21:23-26 *And the city had no need of the sun, & neither of the moon, to shine in it. For the glory of God did [enlighten] it, & the Lamb is the Light [of it.] And [those] nations [who] are saved, shall walk in the light of it. And the kings of the earth, [bring] their glory & [honor] into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory, & [honor] of the nations into it.]

For the nation & kingdom that won't serve you, shall perish. [Yes,] those nations shall be [totally ruined.] [Revelation 14:9-11 And the 3rd Angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man [worships] the beast & his image, & [receives] his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink [from] the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture, [a.k.a. not watered down,] into the cup of His indignation, [a.k.a. anger aroused by injustice.] And he shall be tormented with fire & brimstone in the presence of the holy Angels, & in the presence of the Lamb. And [those] who worship the beast, & his image, & [whoever receives] the mark of his name, have no rest day, nor night, & the smoke of their torment [ascends] up forever, & ever.] 

The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, & the: fir tree, pine tree, & box [tree,] together, to beautify the place of My sanctuary, & I will make the place of My feet glorious. [Ezekiel 43:7 And He said to me, Son of man, the house of Israel, & their kings, shall no [longer] defile: by their [unfaithful] [harlotry,] nor by their [corpses] in their high places: My Holy Name, & the place of My throne, & the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children, [a.k.a. people,] of Israel forever.] 

Also the sons of[those who] afflicted you, shall come bending [down] to you; & all [those who] despised you, shall bow themselves down at the soles of your feet. [Acts 13:46-49 Then, Paul & Barnabas [grew] bold, & said, It was necessary that the Word of God should 1st have been spoken to you, [a.k.a. Israelites,] but seeing you put it off from you, & judge yourselves unworthy of Everlasting Life, [look,] we turn to the Gentiles. For the Lord [has] commanded us, saying, I have [put] you to be a light to the Gentiles, [so] that you [should] be for Salvation to the ends of the earth. And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, & glorified the Word of the Lord. And as many as believed, were ordained, [a.k.a. appointed,] to Eternal Life. And the Word of the Lord was [declared] throughout all the region.]

And they shall call you, The City of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel. [Revelation 3:9-11 [See,] I will make [those from] [Satan's] synagogue, [who] say they are Jews, & aren't, but lie, [look,] & I will make them come & worship [in front of] your feet, to know that I have loved you. Because you [have] kept the Word [of God,] [showing] My patience, I will also keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to [test those, who] dwell upon the earth. [Watch,] I come quickly. Hold [tight to what] you [have, so] that no man [takes] your crown.]

[Since,] you [have] been [abandoned] & hated, so that no man went through you, I will make you [of] eternal [excellence,] a joy [for] many generations. You [shall] also suck the milk of the Gentiles, & shall [nurse from] kings. And you [shall] know that I, the Lord, Am your Savior, & your Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. 

[Isaiah 49:23 And kings shall be your [foster] fathers, & their queens your [foster] mothers. They shall bow down to you with their face toward the [ground,] & lick up the dust [off] your feet. And you [shall] know that I Am the Lord: for [those who] wait for Me, shall not be ashamed.]

[Instead of] brass, I will bring gold, & for iron, I will bring silver. And for wood, [I will bring,] brass, & for stones, [I will bring,] iron. I will also make your officers [peaceful,] & [to] your exactors, [those who demand unfair payment from you,] [I will bring,] righteousness. 

Violence, [ruin,] nor destruction shall no [longer] be heard in your land, [or] within your borders. But you [shall] call your walls: Salvation, & your gates: Praise. 

[Revelation 21:1-4 And I saw a new heaven & a new earth. For the first heaven & the first earth [had] passed away; & there was no more sea. And I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared [like] a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, [Look,] the tabernacle of God is with men. And He will dwell with them & they shall be His people, & God, Himself, shall be with them, & be their God. *And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. And there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying. Neither shall there be anymore pain: for the [previous] things [have] passed away.]

The sun shall no [longer] be your light by day; & neither shall the moon give light to you for brightness. But the Lord shall be to you an everlasting Light, & your God, your glory. [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.] 

The sun shall no [longer] go down; neither shall your moon withdraw itself: for the Lord shall be your everlasting Light & the days of your mourning shall be ended. [Revelation 22:5 And there shall be no night there; & they [shall] need no candle, neither light [from] the sun; for the Lord God [gives] them Light. And they shall [rule] forever & ever.]

Also, all your people shall be righteous. They shall inherit the land forever, the Branch of My planting, the work of My hands, [so] that I may be glorified.  [Isaiah 11:1-4 *And a Rod shall come forth there, out of the stem of Jesse, & a Branch shall grow out of his roots, [a.k.a. lineage.] 

*And the [Holy] Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, the spirit of: wisdom, & understanding; the spirit of: counsel, & [strength;] the spirit of: knowledge, & the fear, [a.k.a. respect,] of the Lord, & shall make Him of [immediate] understanding in the fear, [a.k.a. respect,] of the Lord. And He shall not judge, [according] [to what] His eyes [see,] & neither [chastise according] [to what] His ears [hear.] But He shall judge the poor with Righteousness, & will [repay] the meek, [a.k.a. humble,] of the earth with equity. And He shall [strike] the earth with the rod of His mouth, & He shall slay the wicked with the breath of His lips.]

A little one, shall become 1,000, & a small one, [shall become:] a strong nation. I the Lord will [expedite] it in [its] time. [Micah 5:2 *But you, Bethlehem Ephratah, though you [are] little among the 1,000's of Judah, [still] He shall come forth out of you, to Me, [Who] is to be ruler in Israel; Whose goings [out] have been from [ancient times,] from everlasting.]

Isaiah 59:1-21 Their Feet Run to Do Evil & They Hurry to Shed Innocent Blood

Their Feet Run to Do Evil & They Hurry to Shed Innocent Blood

Isaiah 59:1-21                               The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks]

[Look,] the Lord's hand isn't shortened, that it can't save. Neither [is] His ear heavy, that it can't hear. [Jeremiah 32:17 Ah, Lord God! [See,] You [have] made the heaven, & the earth, by Your great power & [outstretched] arm, & there is nothing too hard for You.]

But your iniquities have separated, [& have come] between you, & your God, & your sins have [hidden] His face from you, [so] that He won't hear. For your hands are defiled with [bloodshed,] & your fingers with [sinfulness.]  [Isaiah 1:15-16 And when you spread [out] your hands, I will hide [My] eyes from you. [Yes,] when you make many prayers, I won't hear. Your hands are full of [bloodshed.] Wash [yourselves,] & make [yourself] clean. Put away the evil of your [actions] from before [My] eyes, & [stop doing] [what is:] evil.]

Your lips have spoken lies, & your tongue [has] muttered [what is:] [wicked.] 

[Jeremiah 2:26-28 [Like] a thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, & their: kings, princes, priests, & their prophets. Saying to a [tree] [stump,] You [are] my father; & to a stone, [a.k.a. rock,] You [have delivered] me. For they have turned their back to Me, & not their face. 

But in the time of their trouble, they will say, Arise, & save us. But where are your gods that you [have] made [yourselves?] Let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your trouble. For your gods, O Judah, are according to the number of your cities.]

None [call] for justice, nor [do] any [plead] for truth. They trust in [what is] vanity, & speak lies. They [devise plots,] & [produce] [what is:] [sinful.] [Isaiah 41:28-29 For I [saw,] & there was no man; & no [counselor,] even among them, that, when I asked them, could answer a word. [Look,] they are all vanity; their works are nothing; & their [molded] images, [a.k.a. idols,] are wind & confusion.]  

They hatch [wicked plans like poisonous] [vipers'] eggs [hatch,] & weave [intricate plots like] the spider's web. He, [who eats] their eggs [dies,] & [what] is crushed [hatches] out into a viper. Their webs shall not become [clothing,] neither shall they cover themselves with their works. Their works are [sinful] works. [Isaiah 2:8 Also their land is full of idols. They worship the work [from] their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.]

And in their hands is the act of violence. Their feet [race] to evil, & they [hurry] to shed [the] blood [of the] innocent. Their thoughts are the thoughts of [sinfulness.] [2 Kings 21:16 [Also,] Manasseh shed very much innocent blood, [until] he had filled Jerusalem from one end to the another; [in addition to] his sin [with which] he made Judah sin, in doing [what] was evil in the sight of the Lord.]

[Ruin,] & destruction are in their paths. They [don't] know the way of peace, & there is no judgment, [a.k.a. justice,] in their [actions.] They have made [themselves] crooked paths. [Whoever] goes [there] shall not know peace. [Psalm 125:4-5 O Lord, do good unto those [who are] good, & to [those, who have] upright, [a.k.a. honest,] hearts. As for such as turn aside, [a.k.a. are led astray,] to their crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them [out] with the workers of [sinfulness:] but peace shall be upon Israel.]

Therefore, judgment is far from us, & neither [does] justice [come over] us. We wait for light, but [see blurriness;] [we wait] for brightness, but we walk in darkness. [1 John 1:5-7 Then, this is the message [that] we have heard [from Jesus Christ,] & declare to you, that God Is Light, & there is no darkness at all in Him. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, & walk, [a.k.a. follow,] in darkness, we lie, & [don't] [have] the Truth. But if we [follow] in the Light, [like] He is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another. And the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, [cleanses] us from all sin.] 

Like the blind, we grope for the wall, & we [grab, like] we had no eyes. We stumble at [noon, like] in the night. We are in: desolate, [lonely] places [like] dead men. We all roar like bears, & [moan sadly] like doves. We look for judgment, [a.k.a. justice,] but there is none, & [we look] for Salvation, but it is far [away] from us. [Isaiah 1:23-24 Your princes are rebellious, & [are] companions of thieves. Everyone [loves] gifts, & [follows] after rewards, [a.k.a. bribes.] They [don't] judge the fatherless, & neither [does] the [case] of the widow come to them. Therefore, the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, [says,] Ah, I will ease [Myself] of [My] adversaries, & avenge [Myself] of [My] enemies.]

For our transgressions are multiplied before You, & our sins testify against us. For our transgressions are with us, [like] our [sins,] & we know them: [sinning,] & lying against the Lord, & [turning] away from our God, & speaking [about:] oppression, revolt, & [plotting,] & uttering words of falsehood from the heart. 

And judgment [has gone astray,] & justice [stands far away.] For truth [has] fallen in the street, & equity can't enter. [Yes,] truth fails, [a.k.a. ceases to exist,] & he [who departs] from evil, [makes] himself a prey, & the Lord saw it, & it displeased Him that there was no judgment, [a.k.a. justice.] [Isaiah 10:1-2 Woe to [those, who] decree unrighteous decrees, & write [grievous] [laws] that they have [imposed,] [in order] to [deprive] the needy from judgment, [a.k.a. justice,] & to take away the [rights] from the poor of My people, [so] that widows may be [plundered,] & [so] that they may rob the fatherless!]

And He saw that there was no man, & wondered that there [wasn't any to plead] [on their behalf.] Therefore, His arm brought Salvation to him, [a.k.a. Israel,] & sustained him [with] His [righteous] [arm.] 

[1 John 2:1-2 My little children, [a.k.a. new believers in Christ,] I write these things to you, [so] that you [don't] sin. And if any man [sins,] we have an advocate with the Father, the Righteous, Jesus Christ. And He is the [atonement] for our sins, & not only for [our] [sins,] but also for the sins of the whole world.] 

For He put on righteousness [like] a breastplate, & [a] helmet of Salvation upon His head. And He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, & was [dressed] with zeal, as a cloak. Ephesians 6:11-12 Put on the whole [armor] of God, [so] that you may be able to stand [up] against the wiles, [a.k.a. tricks,] of the devil. For we [don't] wrestle against flesh & blood, but against: principalities, powers, rulers of the [world's] darkness, & against spiritual wickedness in high places.]

He will repay fury to His adversaries, & [retribution] to His enemies, & to the [coastal] islands, He will repay recompense according to their deeds. [Isaiah 35:4 Say to [those with] a fearful heart, Be strong, & [don't] fear. [Look,] your God will come with vengeance, even God with a [repayment.] He will come, & save you.] 

So, shall they from the West fear, [a.k.a. respect,] the Name of the Lord, & [those] from the [sunrise in the East,] [shall respect] His glory. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the [Holy] Spirit of the Lord, shall lift up a [banner] against him.

[Revelation 12:15-17 And the serpent [spewed] water out of his mouth [like] a flood, after the woman, [so] that he might cause her to be carried away [by] the flood. And the earth helped the woman. And the earth opened [its] mouth, & swallowed up the flood, [that] the dragon [spewed] out of his mouth. And the dragon was [enraged,] with the woman, & went to make war with the [rest] of her seed, [a.k.a. descendants, who] keep [God's] commandments, & have the Testimony [about] Jesus Christ.] 

And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, & to [those who] turn [away] from [sin] in Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel, says] the Lord. As for Me, this is My Covenant, [a.k.a. contract,] with them, [says] the Lord. 

My [Holy] Spirit that is upon you, & My Words [that] I have put in your mouth, shall not [leave from] your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your seed, [a.k.a. offspring,] nor out of the [mouths] of your seed's seed, [a.k.a. descendants,] from [now on,] & forever, [says] the Lord. [Hebrews 8:10-12 For after those days, this is the covenant, [a.k.a. contract,] that I will make with the house of Israel, [says] the Lord. I will put My Laws into their minds, & write them [within] their hearts. And I will be a God to them, & they shall be a people to Me. And every man shall not teach his neighbor, & every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord; for all shall know Me, from the [powerless] to the [powerful.] For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. And I will no [longer] remember their sins & iniquities.]

Isaiah 58:1-14 Going Through the Motions of Fasting

Going Through the Motions of Fasting

Isaiah 58:1-14                                The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks]

Cry [out loudly,] & [don't hold back.] Lift up your voice like a trumpet, & [declare] their [transgressions to] My people, & their sins to the house of Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel.] [Still,] they seek Me daily, & delight to know My ways, [like] a [righteous] nation, & [didn't abandon] the [rules] of their God. 

They ask Me the [rules] of justice, & they take delight in [coming closer] to God. They say, [For what reason] have we fasted, & You [don't see?] [Why] have we afflicted our [souls,] & You [are unaware?] [Look, on] the day of your fast, you find pleasure, & [insist] on [doing] all your [labors.] 

[Exodus 20:8-11 Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy. You [shall] labor 6 days, & do all your work: but the 7th day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. You [shall] not do any work [on] it: you, your son, your daughter, your [male servant,] your [female servant,] your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates. 

For in 6 days, the Lord made heaven & earth, the sea, & and all that is in them, & rested the 7th day. [For this reason,] the Lord blessed the Sabbath Day, & hallowed it.]

[Look,] you fast for [arguments] & [debates,] & to [wickedly strike] with the fist. You shall not fast [like] you do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high. 

[1 Kings 21:11-15 And the men of his city, even the elders & the nobles who were the [residents] in his city, did [like] Jezebel had written in the letters [that] she had sent to them. 

They proclaimed a fast, & [put] Naboth on high among the people. And there came in 2 [wicked] men, & sat [in front of Naboth,] & the [wicked] men witnessed against him, even Naboth, in the presence of the people saying, Naboth [blasphemed] God & the king. Then, they carried him out of the city, & stoned him with [rocks, so] that he died. 

Then, they sent to Jezebel, saying Naboth is stoned, & is dead. And it [happened,] when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, & was dead, that Jezebel said to [king] Ahab, Arise, & take possession of vineyard of Naboth, the Jezreelite, [that] he refused to give you for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.] 

Is it a fast such [as this,] that I have chosen? A day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head [like] a [reed] [bends over,] & to spread sackcloth & ashes under him? [Will] you call this a fast, & an acceptable day to the Lord? 

Isn't this the fast that I have chosen? To [loosen] the [bonds] of wickedness, to [lighten] the heavy burdens, & to let the oppressed go free, [so] that you break every yoke [of oppression?] 

Isn't  it to [distribute] your bread to the hungry, & [so] that you bring the poor, [who] are cast out [into] your house? When you [see] the naked, that you cover him, & that you [don't] hide yourself from your own flesh, [a.k.a. family?] 

[Ezekiel 18:5-9 but if a man [is] just, [a.k.a. honest,] & does what is lawful & right, & [hasn't] eaten upon the mountains, & [has] neither lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel. Neither [has] [he] defiled his [neighbor's] wife, & neither [has] [he been intimate with] a woman [during her monthly cycle.] And [he] [hasn't] oppressed any, but [has] restored to the debtor his pledge, & [hasn't plundered any] by violence, & [has] given his bread to the hungry, & [has] covered the naked with a garment. 

He [who hasn't] given, [a.k.a. lent, with] usury, [a.k.a. loans with excessive interest,] neither [has] [he] taken any [excessive] [profit,] & [he] [has] withdrawn his hand from [sinfulness,] & [has carried out] true judgment between [2 men,] & [has] walked, [a.k.a. followed,] in My [mandates,] & [has] kept My judgments, to [act fairly.] He is just, & he shall surely live, [says] the Lord God.]

Then, shall your light break [out, like] the morning, & your health shall speedily [sprout up,] & your righteousness shall go before you. The glory of the Lord shall be your [rear guard.] Then, you [shall] call, & the Lord shall answer. You [shall] cry [out,] & He shall say, Here I Am. 

If you take the yoke, [a.k.a. burden,] the [pointing] finger, & speaking [what is] vanity, away from the midst of you, & if you [pull] out your [hand] to [give to] the hungry, & satisfy the afflicted soul; then, your light shall rise in [the blurriness,] & your darkness shall be [like noon.] 

And the Lord shall guide you continually, & satisfy your soul in drought, & make your bones [plump,] & you [shall] be like a watered garden, & like a spring of water, whose waters [never] fail. 

And [those, who are from] you, [a.k.a. your descendants,] shall [rebuild] the old waste [lands,] & you [shall] raise up the foundations [for] many generations. And you [shall] be called, The Repairer of the Breach, [a.k.a. Cracks,] & The Restorer of the [Streets] to dwell in. 

If you turn your foot away from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My Holy Day, & [again] call the Sabbath;]: a delight, & the Holy of the Lord: & [honorable,] & shall [honor] Him, not doing your own [things,] & [not looking to] [find] your own pleasure, & not speaking your own words. [John 12:49-50 For I haven't spoken of Myself; but the Father [Who] sent Me, He gave Me a commandment, what I should say, & what I should speak. And I know that His commandment is [what leads to:] Everlasting Life. Therefore, [whatever] I speak, I even speak [like] the Father said to Me.] 

Then, you [shall] delight yourself in the Lord; & I will cause you to ride upon the high places of the earth, & [will] feed you [along] with the heritage of Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel,] your [forefather.] For the mouth of the Lord [has] spoken it. 

[Deuteronomy 32:12-13 So, the Lord Alone [led] him, & there was no strange god with Him. He made [Jacob] ride on the high places of the earth, [so] that he might eat the increase of the fields; & He made him suck honey out of the rock, & oil out of the flinty rock.]
