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.

Zechariah 2:1-13 Many Nations Shall Join the Lord & Become His People

 

Many Nations Shall Join the Lord & Become His People

Zechariah 2:1-13         The Book of Zechariah [in Smaller Chunks]

I [raised] up my eyes again, & looked, & [saw] a man with a measuring line in his hand. [Ezekiel 40:3-4 And He brought me [there,] & [saw] a man was there, whose appearance was like the [resemblance] of brass, with a [measuring] line of flax in his hand, & a measuring reed. And he stood in the gate. 

And the man said to me, Son of man, [look,] with your eyes, & hear with your ears, & [focus] your heart upon all that I shall [declare to] you. You are brought here, [in order] that I might [show] them to you. Declare all that you see to the house of Israel.] 

Then, I said, [Where] [are] you [going?] And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is [its width,] & length [of it.] [Revelation 11:1-2 And a reed, [similar] to a rod, was given [to] me there. And the Angel stood, saying, Rise & measure the temple of God, & the altar, & [those, who] worship [in there.] 

But leave out the [courtyard outside] [of] the temple, & [don't] measure it. For it is given to the Gentiles. And they shall [trample] the holy city under foot, 42 months.] 

And, [I] [saw,] the Angel, [who] talked with me, went [out,] & another Angel went out to meet him, & said to him, Run & speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem, shall be inhabited [like] towns without walls, [because of] the multitude of men, & [livestock there.] 

The Lord says, For I will be a wall of fire [all around for] her, & will be the glory in the midst of her. [Up, up,] come [out,] & flee from the land of the North, says the Lord. For I have spread, [a.k.a distributed] you [around, like] the 4 winds of heaven, says the Lord. 

O Zion, [who] dwells with the daughter of Babylon, deliver, [a.k.a. save,]  yourself. [Revelation 18:4-5 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, My people, [so] that you [aren't participants] of her sins, & you [don't] receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven, & God has remembered her iniquities.] 

For the Lord of Hosts says [this;] After the glory, He has sent Me to the nations, [who plundered] you. For he, [who] touches you, [meddles with] the apple of His eye. For, [look,] I will shake [My] hand upon them, & they shall be [plunder] to their servants: & you shall know that the Lord of Hosts has sent Me,

O daughter of Zion, Sing & rejoice: for, [look,] I come, & I will dwell in the midst of you, says the Lord. [Revelation 21:2-4 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, & there shall no [longer] be death, neither sorrow, nor crying. Neither shall there be anymore pain: for the [previous] things are passed away.] 

And many nations shall be joined to the Lord [on] that day, & shall be My people. [Revelation 5:9-11 And they [sang] a new song, saying, You Are worthy to take the Book, & to open [its] seals. 

For You [were] slain, & have redeemed us, out of every [family; language;] people, & nation, to God by Your blood, & have made us: kings & priests to our God, & we shall [rule] on the earth. 

And I [saw] & heard the voice of many Angels & the [living creatures,] & elders. And the number of them was 10,000 times 10,000 & 1,000's of 1,000's, [all around] the throne. 

And I will dwell in the midst of you, & you shall know that the Lord of Hosts has sent Me to you. [Revelation 5:12  * Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb, [Who] was slain, to receive power; riches; wisdom; strength; honor; glory; & [blessings.] 

And the Lord shall [take] Judah [as] His portion [of an] [inheritance] in the holy land, & shall choose Jerusalem again. [Deuteronomy 32:8-9 When the Most High divided their inheritance to the nations, when He separated the sons of Adam, & He [put boundaries for] the people, according to the number of the children of Israel. For the Lord's portion is His people. Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel,] is the lot of His inheritance.]

O all flesh, be silent, [in front of] the Lord. For He is raised up out of His Holy habitation. [Habakkuk 2:20 But the Lord is in His holy temple. Let all the earth keep [silent] before Him.]
