That means that as you read the Bible, it sheds light on the subject you are reading about. If you want to be enlightened about a subject the Bible discusses, then read the Bible itself and compare Scripture with Scripture by means of cross references to get access to the other verses that shed light on the verse you are studying.

Surely this verse teaches that the Bible is understandable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For those who desire to DIG DEEPER into this subject:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(1) Consult the cross references given in <em>Nelson\u2019s Cross Reference Guide to the Bible<\/em> on page 633 for Psalm 119:130.<\/p>\n<p>(2) Consult the cross references given in <em>The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/em> on page 677 or in Logos 5 Bible software for Psalm 119:130.<\/p>\n<p>(3) Lacking access to those two resources, consult the cross references for this passage as I have developed them as given below:<\/p>\n<p>     Psalm 119:130.  <strong>entrance<\/strong>.
