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.

Jeremiah 16:1-21 About the Sons & Daughters Born in This Place

 

About the Sons & Daughters Born in This Place

Jeremiah 16:1-21                               The Book of Jeremiah [in Smaller Chunks]

The Word of the Lord also came to me, saying, You shall not take [for yourself] a wife, & neither shall you have sons or daughters in this place. For the Lord says [this about] the sons & daughters that are born in this place & [about] the mothers [who bore] them. 

And [about] their fathers, [who fathered] them in this land. They shall die grievous deaths & they shall not be [mourned.] Neither shall they be buried. But they shall be [like human fertilizer] upon the [surface] of the earth.

And they shall be [devoured] by the sword & by famine. And their [corpses] shall be meat for the [birds] of heaven & the [animals] of the earth. For the Lord says [this, Don't] enter into the house of mourning & neither go to [grieve,] nor [mourn for] them. 

For I have taken away My peace, even loving kindness & mercies, from this people, says the Lord. Both the [powerful] & the [powerless] shall die in this land. They shall not be buried & neither shall men [mourn] for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them.

Neither shall men [weep] themselves for [those who are] in mourning, to comfort them for the dead. Neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their [mother's death.] [Proverbs 31:6-7 Give strong drink to him, [who] is ready to perish & wine to those [who have] heavy hearts. Let him drink & forget his poverty & no [longer] remember his misery.] 

Also, you shall not go into the house of feasting, to sit with them to eat & drink. For the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel says [this, Look,] I will cause to cease out of this place, the [sound] of [happiness] & gladness & the [voices] of the bridegroom & the bride, [before] your eyes, [during] your [life.]  

[Revelation 18:23 And the light of a candle shall [no longer] shine at all in you. And the [voices] of the bridegroom & the bride shall no [longer] be heard at all in you. For your merchants were the great men of the earth. [But] by your sorceries, all nations were deceived.] 

And it shall [happen,] when you shall [declare to] this people all these Words & they shall say to you, [Why] has the Lord [announced] all this [large disaster] against us? Or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against the Lord our God? 

The Lord says, Then, you shall say to them, Because your [forefathers] have [abandoned] Me & have [followed] after other gods & served & worshiped them. And [they] have [abandoned] Me & haven't kept My Law. 

And you have done worse than your [forefathers;] for [see,] everyone [follows] after the imagination of his evil heart, [so] that they [won't pay attention] to Me. Therefore, I will cast you out of this land, into land that you, nor your [forefathers] know. And there you shall serve other gods day & night, where I won't show you [partiality.] 

The Lord says, Therefore, [watch,] the days come, that it shall no [longer] be said, The Lord lives, [Who] brought up the children [people] of Israel, out of the land of Egypt. But [it shall be said,] The Lord lives, [Who]  brought up the children [people] of Israel from the land of the North & all the lands [where] He had driven them. 

And I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their [forefathers.] [Jeremiah 24:7 And I will give them [a] heart to know Me, that I Am the Lord & they shall be My people & I will be their God. For they shall return to Me, with their whole heart.]

The Lord says, [Look,] I will send for many fishers & they shall fish them [out.] And after [that,] I will send for many hunters & they shall hunt [for] them from every mountain & every hill & out of the [cave] holes of the rocks. 

[Amos 4:2-3 The Lord God has sworn by His Holiness, [Look,] the days shall come upon you, that He will take you away with hooks & your [descendants] with fish hooks. And you [will follow, like] every cow that is [in front of] her & shall go out at the [breaks in the walls,] & you shall cast them into the palace [prisons,] says the Lord.] 

For [My] eyes are upon all their ways & they [aren't hidden] from My face & neither is their [sin hidden] from [My] eyes. And 1st, I will [repay] their iniquity & sin double, because they have defiled My land & they have defiled [My] inheritance, with the carcasses of their detestable & abominable things. 

[Habakkuk 2:18 What [benefit is] the [carved] image that [its] maker has [carved] it & the [molded] image & a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusts [in it,] to make [mute] idols?]

O Lord, my: strength, fortress & refuge [on] the day of affliction. The Gentiles shall come to You from the ends of the earth & shall say, Surely, our [forefathers] have inherited lies, vanity & things [in which] there is no [benefit.]

[Isaiah 44:10 Who has formed a god, or a [molded, carved] image that is [beneficial for nothing?]

Shall a man make gods [for] himself & they aren't gods? [Psalm 115:4-8 Their idols are silver & gold, the work of men's hands. They have mouths, but they [can't] speak. They have eyes, but they [can't] see. They have ears, but they [can't] hear. They have noses, but they [can't] smell. They have hands, but they [can't touch.] They have feet, but they [can't] walk. Neither can they speak through their throat. [Those who] make them are [similar] to them & so is everyone [who] trusts in them.] 

Therefore, [look,] I will cause them to know this once & I will cause them to know [My] hand & My [strength] & they shall know that My Name is The Lord.
