I was taught a meaning in a Bible study years ago.  I want to check it out.

Methuselah or Metushélach (Hebrew מְתוּשֶׁלַח / מְתוּשָׁלַח "Man of the dart", or alternatively "when he dies, it shall be sent" Standard Hebrew Mətušélaḥ / Mətušálaḥ, Tiberian Hebrew Məṯûšélaḥ / Məṯûšālaḥ) was the oldest person whose age is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. He reportedly reached the age of 969 years. According to the Book of Genesis 5:27: And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died. (ASV)\n\nHe is mentioned in Genesis as the son of Enoch and the father of Lamech (father of Noah), whom he fathered at the age of 187. His name has become a general synonym for any living creature of great age.

The KJV was meticulously translated.  By man.  And, no surprise, it isn't perfect.\nThere IS no perfect translation because, even if you have a Hebrew, Greek or Chaldean lexicon, you don't have the meaning of the words from 2,000 years ago.  Meanings change.  Take the word "gay" for example - means something VERY different today than it did 20 years ago.\nWithout taking the time to learn the original languages, then do have the lexicons as well as a Strongs (or other) Concordance.  Read the same passages in different versions for richer comprehension.  A passage read from the KJV, the NIV and The Message takes on new dimension.\nRead it - and read it sloooowly and patiently!  Read it reguarly.  And read it again and again.  What had no relevance (seemingly) last month can suddenly leap out at you today.

Far too many people have Bible, and wouldn't be able to explain the meaning of a passage, if you asked them.The book is meant to be read, understood, and the Word is to be put into practice daily in our lives.

Dear ES,\n\nI agree with you and I enjoy reading it and giving away copies of the Bible.\n\nLong before I read the Bible from cover-to-cover I intended to re-write the Bible and take out all of the sexist language.  What a joke that was!  When I finally read it I didn't change it but it sure did change me!\n\nOne wonderful thing I noticed was that I had the feeling that it was written directly to me, even though I know it was written long before I was born.  It reminds me of looking at a photograph when it seems as though the subject is looking right back at you.\n\nEven though there have been several translations of the Bible they all say just about the same thing.  However I've seen a few that are not divinely inspired and there is no sense of the Living Word of God.\n\nYes, it is fascinating to look at the prophecies and realize that Jesus was the only person who ever had his biography written before He was born!

I've read the Bible, it was a useful tool in my decision to become atheist.

What you are looking for is called a "loose leaf Bible".  I used to have one and they are really nice.  It comes in different translations but the KJV is probably the easiest to find.  The loose leaf Bible is a Bible in a three (or more) ring binder form.  So not only can you remove just the books you need and put them in another binder, but you can insert your own note pages anywhere you want since it's like a notebook.  Another answerer mentoned a J. Vernon McGee Bible study series.  That is also another good option.  You can get each individual book really cheap at used book stores.  J.Vernon McGee is a very good commentator and offers some very easy to understand insights into the scriptures.  There are other commentaries like his that come in individual books as well.  So, you have a lot of good options out there.  You can also download for free individual books of the Bible in the King James Version and print them out and make your own loose leaf Bible that way.  (The King James Version is free because there is no copyright on this version.)  Just Google search "free Bible downloads" and you'll come across it.  Good luck and I hope I've been of some help to you.

I love this one - http://www.watchtower.org/bible/ - It's translated from the original Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic languages and written in modern , understandable English.

Actually, you come very close!  I suggest an excellent book, "Idioms of the Bible", the author's name is beyond me for now.  It was created by  a Bible scholar who is very familiar with both modern and ancient Hebrew and Aramaic, and has done some wonderful research in various areas relating to the Bible and religion.

The word of God is so much more in depth than we realize.the meanings don't contradict each other they just have more and more meaning.My friends and I can go to Bible study and each come away with differant things we got from it,then when we share those things,it's like the study has even more meaning.What you learn might be differant than what someone else learned but when you share then you've both learned even more.Does that make sense.

Try Matthew 18:22...\n\nPeace be with you.

Dude, I don't know where you get your views, but they are not a reflection of God as revealed in the Holy Bible.  Have you ever read it?  Ever had a serious discussion with real people who have also studied it and could have dismissed it all as bunk, but instead they "bet the farm", their lives, reputations, livelihoods on it.  Talk to some real Christians in person.  Anonymity on a yahoo answers forum is not going to get you the real answers you're seeking.

Look on the Free Stuff page @ http://web.express56.com/~bromar/ \n\nThere are several links for Bible studies, also download the free e-Sword software along with some of the commentaries and the Bible encyclopedia and stuff like that to help with your studies.

It is there in the old testament in the chapters after 'exodus'. but before you go into just that part consider reading the earlier books 'genesis' and the later chapters. Try to understand the situation in which the laws were laid down then.   Not every thing should be considered literally, also try reading the new testament for a while,as everything is connected.Reading the bible is a good thing but get your hands on the unbaised versions (international) or try the site www.Gutenberg.org to download it free.

if you arent sure about somethign someone has told you then you need to check it out in an OLD bible, such as the KJV, because people change and have opinions that are their own feelings.. God doesnt change , we do and we have totally lost how things used to be and come so far from the truth... dont trust people only the bible
