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.

Isaiah 34:1-17 The Lord's Indignation is Upon All Nations & All Their Armies

 

The Lord's Indignation is Upon All Nations & All Their Armies

Isaiah 34:1-17                                The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks]

Come [close,] you nations to hear & [pay attention,] you people. Let the earth hear & all that's [in it] & the world & all things that come [from] it. For the indignation of the Lord is upon all nations & His fury upon all their armies. He has [totally] destroyed them & He has delivered them to the slaughter. 

Also, their slain shall be [thrown] out & their stink shall come up [from] their [corpse'] & the mountains shall be melted with their [bloodshed.] [Amos 4:10 I have sent among you the pestilence, [similar to Egypt's.] I have slain your young men with the sword & have taken away your horses. And I have made your [camp's] stink to come up [into] your nostrils. [Still,] you haven't returned to Me, says the Lord.]

And all the [stars] of heaven shall be dissolved & the heavens shall be rolled together [like] a scroll. And all their [stars] shall fall down, [like] the leaf falls off from the vine & like the fig [falls] from the fig tree. 

[Revelation 6:12-14 And I [saw] when He had opened the 6th seal & [indeed,] there was a [large] earthquake & the sun became black [like] sackcloth of [goat's] hair & the moon became like blood. 

And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, even [like] a fig tree [drops it's bad] figs, when a mighty wind [shakes it.] And the heaven departed like a scroll when it is rolled together & every mountain & island were moved out of their places.]

For, [look,] My sword shall come down upon Idumea, [a.k.a. Edom,] & upon the people of My curse, [for justice,] & it shall be [cleansed] in heaven. [Psalm 97:5-7 The hills melted like wax [in] the presence of the Lord.

[In] the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. The heavens declare His Righteousness & all the people see His glory. All [those who] served [carved] images & boast themselves of idols, [are confused.] Worship Him, all you gods.] 

The sword of the Lord is filled with [bloodshed.] It is made [overflowing] with the [fat] & blood of lambs & goats & with the fat of [rams'] kidneys; for the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah, [a.k.a. Bostra] & a great slaughter in the land of Idumea, [a.k.a. Edom.] 

And the [wild ox] shall come down with them & bulls with the bullocks, [a.k.a. young bulls.] And their land shall be soaked with blood & their [dirt] is made [greasy] with [fat.] 

For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance & the year of [repayment] for the [disagreement] of Zion. [Isaiah 61:2 *To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord & the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all [who] mourn.]

And [its] streams shall be turned to pitch & [its dirt] into brimstone. And [its] land shall become burning pitch. It shall not be [put out,] night nor day. [Its] smoke shall go up forever. From generation to generation, it shall lie [wastelands] & none shall pass through it forever & ever. 

[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 of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out, without mixture into the cup of His indignation. 

And he shall be tormented with fire & brimstone in the presence of the holy Angels & in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment, [goes] up forever & ever. And [those who] worship the beast & his image & [whoever] receives the mark of his name, have no rest day nor night.]

But the cormorant, [a.k.a. pelican] & the [porcupine] shall possess it. The owl & also the raven shall dwell in it. And He shall stretch out the line of confusion & the stones of emptiness upon it. [Zephaniah 2:14-15 And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her & all [animals] of the nations: both the cormorant & the [porcupine] shall lodge in their upper [canopies] of it. 

Their voice shall sing in the windows & desolation shall be in the thresholds: for He shall uncover the cedar work. This is that rejoicing city that [lived] carelessly & said in her heart, I am & there is none [besides] me. How [has] she become a desolation, a place for [animals] to lie down in! Everyone, [who] passes by her shall his & [shake] his hand [at it.

They shall call their nobles there to the kingdom, but none shall be there. And all her princes shall [no longer] be. And thorns shall come up in her palaces & [stinging] nettles & [sticker bushes] in the fortresses [there.] And it shall be a [dwelling for jackals] & a [courtyard] for owls. 

The wild [animals] of the desert & wild [animals] of the [islands] & the satyr, [a.k.a. wild goat,] shall cry [out] to [its companions.] The screech owl shall also find for herself a place of rest there. The great owls shall make her nest there & lay & hatch [eggs & they] gather under her shadow there. The vultures there shall also be gathered, everyone with her mate. 

Seek you out the Book of the Lord & read [it.] [Not] one of these shall fail & none shall [lack its] mate. For My mouth has commanded it & [by] His Spirit, It has gathered them. [Psalm 147:9 He gives to the [animals] his food & to the young ravens which cry [out.]

And He has cast the lot for them & His hand has divided [the land] to them, by [a measuring] line. They shall possess it forever, from generation to generation, they shall dwell [there.]
