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.

Daniel 9:1-27 The Prophecy from The Time of Rebuilding Jerusalem Until the Messiah

 

The Prophecy from The Time of Rebuilding Jerusalem Until the Messiah

Daniel 9:1-27                    The Book of Daniel [in Smaller Chunks]

[During] the 1st year, [Ahasuerus's] son, Darius, [from] the [descendants] of the Medes, was made king, [over] the [Chaldeans' kingdom] & [ruled,] Daniel, understood the number of years, by the books [in which] the Word of the Lord  came to Jeremiah, the prophet, [so] that he would accomplish 70 years [during Jerusalem's] desolations.

[Jeremiah 25:11-12 The Lord says, And this whole land shall be [desolate] & an astonishment. And these nations shall serve the king of Babylon, 70 years. And it shall [happen,] when 70 years are [finished,] that I will punish [Babylon's] king, & that nation, for their [sins] & will make the land of the Chaldean's, [a.k.a. Babylon, continually desolate.]

And by prayer & [petitions] I [focused] my face [on] the Lord God, with fasting, sackcloth, & ashes. [Isaiah 22:12 And [on] that day, the Lord God of Hosts, [called to:] weeping; mourning; baldness; & [clothing] with sackcloth.]

And I prayed to the Lord my God & made my confession & said, O Lord, the great & [dreadfully awesome,] God, [Who keeps] the covenant [contract, with] mercy to [those, who] love Him, & to [those, who] keep His commandments. 

We have sinned & have committed [what is] iniquity; have done wickedly; & have rebelled, even by [leaving] from Your precepts, [a.k.a. Commandments] & judgments. 

[Mark 7:6-7 He answered & said to them, [Isaiah] has prophesied well of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. [However] they worship Me in vain, teaching for doctrines, the commandments of men.] 

Neither have we [paid attention] to Your servants, the prophets, [who spoke] in Your Name to our: kings; princes; [forefathers;] & to all the people of the land. [Matthew 23:37-39 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you, [who] kill the prophets & stone [those, who] are sent to you. 

How often I would have gathered your children together, even [like] a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, & you would not! [Look,] your house is left to you desolate. For I say to you, You shall not see Me [from now on, until] you shall say, Blessed is He, [Who] comes in the Name of the Lord.] 

O Lord, righteousness belongs to You, but to us, [belongs] [shameful] faces, [like it is] this day, [for] the men of Judah; the [residents] of Jerusalem & all Israel, [who] are near & far [away,] through all the countries, [where] You have driven them, because of their [sins] that they have trespassed against You. 

[Shameful] faces belong to us, O Lord, & to our: kings; princes; & [forefathers;] because we have sinned against You. To the Lord our God, belong: mercies & [forgiveness, although] we have rebelled against Him. 

[Nehemiah 9:16-18 But they & our [forefathers behaved] proudly & hardened their necks & [didn't pay attention] to Your commandments & refused to obey [them.] Neither were they mindful of your wonders, [a.k.a. miracles,] that You did among them, but [they] hardened their necks. 

And in their rebellion, [they] appointed a captain to return to their bondage. But You are a God ready to pardon, gracious; merciful; & slow to anger, [with] great kindness & [didn't abandon] them. [Yet,] when they made themselves a [moded] calf, & said, This is your God that brought you up out of Egypt, [they] have [done] great provocations.] 

Neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to [follow] in His Laws, [that] He [put] before us, by His servants, the prophets. [Yes,] all Israel have [sinned against] Your Law, even by [leaving, so] that they might not obey Your voice. 

Therefore, the curse is poured [out] upon us & the oath written in the Law of Moses, the servant of God, because we have sinned against Him. [Jeremiah 23:1-2 The Lord says, Woe be to the pastors, [a.k.a. shepherds, who] destroy & scatter the sheep of My pasture! 

Therefore, the Lord God of Israel says [this] against the pastors, [who] feed My people. You have scattered My flock, & have driven them away & haven't visited them. [Watch,] I will visit, [a.k.a. punish,] you [with] the evil of your [actions,] says the Lord.] 

And He has [verified] His Words, [that] He [spoke] against us & against our judges, [who] judged us, by bringing great [disaster] upon us. For [what] has been done [to] Jerusalem, hasn't been done under the whole heaven. 

[Jeremiah 1:16 And I will [express] My judgments against them [about] all their wickedness. [Those,] who have [abandoned] Me & have burned incense to other gods & worshiped the works [made by] their own hands.]

As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this evil [has] come upon us, & [still] we [didn't make] our prayer before the Lord our God, [so] that we might [return] from our [sins] & understand Your Truth. 

[Judges 10:11-14 And the Lord said to the children [people] of Israel, Didn't I deliver you from the: Egyptians; Amorites; children [people] of Ammon; & the Philistines? Also, the: Zidonians, [a.k.a. Sidonians;] Amalekites; & the Maonites, [oppressed] you. 

And you cried [out] to Me, & I delivered you out of their hand. Yet, you have [abandoned] Me, & served other gods. [For this reason,] I won't deliver you [anymore.] Go & cry [out] to the gods, [that] you have chosen. Let them deliver you in the time of your [troubles.] 

Therefore, the Lord has watched upon the evil & brought it upon us. For the Lord our God is righteous in all His works [that] He does. For we [didn't] obey His voice. And now, O Lord our God, [Who] has brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand & [have] gotten [fame] for Yourself, [like] this day. We have sinned & we have done wickedly. 

O Lord, I [urge] You, according to all Your righteousness. Let Your anger & fury be turned away from Your city, Jerusalem, & Your Holy mountain: because [of] our sins & our [forefathers' sins.] Jerusalem & Your people [have] become a [disgrace] to all, [who] are [around] us. 

Therefore, now, O our God, hear the prayer of Your servant & his [petitions,] & [make] Your face to shine upon Your sanctuary, that is desolate, for the Lord's sake. 

[2 Kings 24:13 And he carried out of [there] all the treasures of the [Lord's] house, & the treasures of the king's house, & cut in pieces all the gold vessels, [that] Solomon made, as the Lord had said,] [that were] in the temple of the Lord.] 

O my God, [lean] Your ear & hear. Open Your eyes & [see] our [desolation] & the city [that] is called by Your Name. For we don't present our [prayers] before You, for our [righteousness,] but for Your great mercies. O Lord, hear. O Lord, forgive. O Lord, [listen] & do & [don't delay,] for Your Own sake, O my God. 

For Your city & Your people are called by Your Name. And [while] I was: speaking; praying; confessing my sin & the [sins] of my people, Israel, & presenting my [requests] before the Lord my God for the Holy mountain of my God. 

[Yes, while] I was speaking [through] prayer, even the man, Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision, at the beginning, [who was able] to fly swiftly, [reached] me about the time of the evening [offering.] And he informed me & talked with me & said, O Daniel, I [have] now come [out] to give you skill & understanding. 

At the beginning of your [requests,] the commandment came [out] & I [have] come to [declare] [these things to] you: for you are greatly beloved. Therefore, understand [this] matter & [think about] the vision. 

Upon your people & upon your Holy city, 70 weeks are determined to finish the: transgression; to make an end of [the] sins; to make reconciliation, [a.k.a. atonement,] for [sin;] & to bring everlasting righteousness; to seal up the vision & [the] prophecy, & to anoint the Most Holy. 

*Therefore, know & understand that from the commandment going [out] to restore & [rebuild] Jerusalem, [until] the Messiah, the Prince, shall be 7 weeks, [plus] 3 score, [a.k.a. 60, plus] 2 weeks, [a.k.a. 69 weeks.] The street shall be [rebuilt] again, & the wall, even in [troublesome] times.

[Matthew 1:17 So, all the generations from Abraham to David, are 14 generations. And from David, until the carrying away [captive] to Babylon, are 14 generations. And from the carrying away into Babylon, [until] Christ, are 14 generations.] 

And after  3 score, [a,k.a. 60, plus] 2 weeks, [a.k.a. 62 weeks,] [the] Messiah shall be cut off. [John 19:30 Therefore, when Jesus had received the vinegar, He said, It is finished. And He bowed His head & gave up the ghost.] 

But not for Himself. [Matthew 20:28 *Even [like] the Son of Man [didn't] come to be ministered to, but to minister, & to give His life [as] a ransom for many.]

And the people of the prince, [who] shall come, shall destroy the city & the sanctuary. And [its] end, shall be with a flood. [Isaiah 59:19 So, shall they fear [respect] the Name of the Lord, from the West, & His glory from the rising of the sun, [a.k.a. the East.] When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a [banner] against him.] 

And [until] the end of the desolations are determined. [Mark 13:19 For [during] those days, shall be affliction, such as [hasn't been] from the beginning of the creation, [that] God created, [until] this time, & neither shall be [again.] 

And he shall confirm the covenant [contract] with many for 1 week, & in the [middle] of the week, he shall cause the sacrifice & the [offering] to [stop.] And, [because of] the [overwhelming] abominations, he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, [a.k.a. destruction.]

[Revelation 20:9-10 And they went up on the breadth of the earth & [surrounded around] the camp of the saints & the beloved city. And fire came down from God, out of heaven & devoured them. 

And the devil, [who] deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire & brimstone, where the beast & the false prophet are, & shall be tormented day & night, forever & ever.] 

And [what was] determined, [a.k.a. decided,] shall be poured [out] upon the desolate. [Mark 13:14 But when you shall see the abomination of desolation, standing where it [shouldn't,] spoken of by Daniel, the prophet, (let him, [who] reads understand.) Then, let [those, who are] in Judea flee to the mountains.]
