“Whom shall He teach knowledge? And whom shall He make to understand doctrine?  Them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.  For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, there a little, there a little” (Isaiah 28:9-10).

These verses have some good advice to those wanting to learn the Scriptures.   God counsels a good practice in learning in this life: “Line upon line”. This methodical principle culminates in “The Body Epistles” for these are the last portions of Scriptures in point of time. To actually and accurately learn the Scriptures (i.e. God’s Word) one will have to “walk accurately”.  This is found in Ephesians 5:15. The word there translated “circumspectly” is akrobose = accurately.

There are words that stand out in Scriptures as they speak of those involved very clearly. This word, spudazo and forms of it, are generally positive. That is, they reflect positively on those directly involved.
