...................................................................LET US LEARN TOGETHER WHAT IS GOOD. Job 34:4b(NIV)................................................................Some people see the Bible as a long and boring book filled with incidents and events from the lives of ancient people who probably never existed. The biblical stories are seen as fables. In this blog, many of the situations and conversations found in the divinely inspired Holy Scriptures have been placed in categories that correspond to expressive sayings and phrases. Reference information, background information and links connecting the people and places are given to help you find a place to begin reading the Bible for yourself.

We Need a Plan
Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover. And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people. Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them. And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.-Luke 22:1-6***Judas Iscariot was 1 of the 12 disciples and apostles of Jesus the Christ, the Son of God. King David was the 2nd king to reign over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land. Over 900 years before Judas Iscariot was prompted to betray Jesus, David was prompted to learn the exact number of eligible fighters among the Israelites. David's actions resulted in David praying to the Lord God. The Lord God offered 3 choices of destruction to David. David accepted responsibility for his actions and received a message to build, on specific property, an altar. David paid a large sum to Araunah (Ornan), the property's owner. David's son Solomon, the 3rd king to reign over all of the Israelites, built the temple of the Lord God on the grounds whereupon the altar was built in Jerusalem. Less than 33 1/2 years after Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and born into the tribe of Judah, the birth tribe of David and Solomon, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin, Judas Iscariot displayed his traitorous actions. Judas Iscariot received 30 silver coins, and was with the band of armed arresters coming towards Jesus. Before Jesus was crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, seen by many people, and returned to heaven, Judas Iscariot killed himself.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 1:1-54, 26:1-65, 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel 1:1-3:21, 8:1-31:13, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-11:43, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles 1:1-9:31, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
