Research within research

I had been straightening up house and came across a book called ... The Lost Prayer of Jabez. I recalled before and just as the 911 happened; we; world wide were studying the Prayer of Jabez. To keep it short both books were valid scripture but context became the issue. Anyhow, time passed as we recall with September 11th; and that study mode seemed to dissolve over time; followed by a whole host of idol, error from pulpt, prosperity teaching, rather then servant teaching; and lastly public scandal of sex filth in the church. 

Anyhow, not wanting to be distracted from my current assignment; I left the page open on my desktop to review over coffee, the next morning; no more then 20 minutes; then I would move on to my prologue assignment. Well that was Sunday a.m. Today is Monday about 3:30 p.m. I have just finished that 20 minute slot for Isaiah 55, review.

Holy Spirit as often happens; led me to go to see what surrounding scripture was attached. So I went forward... 55+56+57+58+59+60+61+62+63. At Isaiah 63 I realized I had just bumped into the Second Coming of Christ. Again.     

NOTE:  Isaiah 63 sees a majestic figure striding out of Edom, from Bozrah, clothes drenched crimson. When questioned, the traveler replies that He speaks what is right and is powerful to save. His garments are red because He has trampled the nations alone, like grapes in a winepress. No one helped Him, so His own strength accomplished rescue for His people even as His anger fell on His enemies. The “day of vengeance” has arrived, matched by a “year of redemption” for those He loves.

WELL EVERYONE KNOWS 1ST COMING! Not so many realize Isaiah is speaking of 2nd Coming; in chapter 63.

With that, i am led to go to Isaiah Chapter 54 and work my way backward by chapter until i get to chapter 49 ...and all flesh knows, “I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. Isaiah 49: The Servant and Light to the Gentiles https://biblehub.com/isaiah/49.htm

“Precept upon precept” is a biblical phrase from Isaiah 28:10 that describes learning God’s Word step by step, line by line, but originally conveys both instruction and warning.

 

“Precept upon precept” is a biblical phrase from Isaiah 28:10 that describes learning God’s Word step by step, line by line, but originally conveys both instruction and warning.

Biblical Context

The phrase appears in  Isaiah 28:10-13, where God addresses the people of Israel and Judah through the prophet Isaiah: “For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little” (KJV)  BibleGateway.com. The term  precept  means a guiding rule, command, or principle. In this passage, God is warning the people that their leaders are proud, unteachable, and relying on political schemes rather than trusting Him. The repetition of “precept upon precept” emphasizes the incremental way God’s Word was given, but also highlights the people’s failure to understand and obey, leading to judgment 

Interpretation and Meaning

While many modern Bible study methods adopt  “precept upon precept”  as a step-by-step approach to Scripture, the original context in Isaiah carries a dual meaning. It illustrates:

  • Incremental learning: God’s Word is revealed gradually, line by line, principle by principle, allowing careful study and understanding 

  • Judgment for folly: The people’s inability to grasp these precepts, despite repeated instruction, results in being “broken, snared, and taken”  Desiring God. This shows that mere repetition without comprehension or obedience is ineffective.Some scholars and teachers note that the phrase has been misapplied in popular teaching, where it is sometimes treated as a simple method for memorization or surface-level study. In reality, Isaiah uses it to contrast  mindless repetition  with  true understanding and application of God’s Word

1Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

2Wherefore do ye spend money for  that which is  not bread? and your labour for  that which  satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye  that which is  good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

3Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you,  even  the sure mercies of David.

4Behold, I have given him  for  a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.

5Behold, thou shalt call a nation  that  thou knowest not, and nations  that  knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

6Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

7Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

8For my thoughts  are  not your thoughts, neither  are  your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

9For  as  the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

10For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

11So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper  in the thing  whereto I sent it.

12For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap  their  hands.

13Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign  that  shall not be cut off.
