Grade 1 Scripture Study Week 16 | Student Textbook
King James Version study. Days 76 to 80.
The KJV writes LORD for Yahuah, God for Elohim, Jesus for Yahusha, and Holy Ghost for Ruach HaQodesh (the Set-Apart Spirit). Scripture quotations remain exactly as printed in the KJV.
Listen to the KJV passage read aloud. Read the short explanation and study the different-verse worked example before starting your practice.
Day 76: Psalm 23:1
Read aloud: Psalm 23:1 (KJV).
A psalm is a song or poem of praise. Psalm 23 calls Yahuah a shepherd. A shepherd cares for sheep and helps lead them. The writer uses that picture to speak of trust and care.
Worked example, Psalm 23:2 (KJV): “He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.”
Sample question: Where does the shepherd make the writer lie down? Find the words: “green pastures.” Worked answer: In green pastures. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 77: Psalm 23:4
Read aloud: Psalm 23:4 (KJV).
The psalm does not say that life is always easy. It speaks of a dark valley. Even there the writer says Yahuah is with him. A rod and staff become pictures of comfort and guidance.
Worked example, Psalm 23:5 (KJV): “Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.”
Sample question: What does the writer say is prepared before him? Find the words: “a table.” Worked answer: A table. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 78: Psalm 19:1
Read aloud: Psalm 19:1 (KJV).
Look up at the sky. The writer of Psalm 19 says the heavens tell of Elohim’s glory. The sky and what we see there become part of the psalm’s message. We can read a poem closely and describe its picture.
Worked example, Psalm 19:2 (KJV): “Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.”
Sample question: What does day unto day utter? Find the words: “uttereth speech.” Worked answer: Speech. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 79: Psalm 19:7
Read aloud: Psalm 19:7 (KJV).
Psalm 19 speaks about Yahuah’s law. The writer calls the law perfect and says it restores or converts the soul. The psalm helps us think about instructions that teach right ways. We look for the words the verse actually uses.
Worked example, Psalm 19:14 (KJV): “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.”
Sample question: What two things does the writer want to be acceptable? Find the words: “words of my mouth.” Worked answer: The words of his mouth and the meditation of his heart. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 80: Psalm 100:2
Read aloud: Psalm 100:2 (KJV).
Psalm 100 invites people to worship Yahuah. It says to serve him with gladness and come before him with singing. These are joyful words of praise. Look for the attitude named by the writer.
Worked example, Psalm 100:4 (KJV): “Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.”
Sample question: With what should people enter his gates? Find the words: “thanksgiving.” Worked answer: Thanksgiving. The printed words show how to find this answer.
