(Isa 28:9-14 KJV) (9) 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. (10) For precept
must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon
line; here a little, and there a little: (11) For with stammering lips
and another tongue will he speak to this people. (12) To whom he said,
This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is
the refreshing: yet they would not hear. (13) But the word of the LORD
was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon
line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they
might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
(14) Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule
this people which is in Jerusalem.
The word precept appears in the Holy Scriptures (KJV) 35 times in 29
verses. Most interestingly it appears in Psalms 119 21 times in 21
scriptures (verses 4, 15, 27, 40, 45, 56, 63, 68, 78, 87, 93, 94, 100,
104, 110, 128, 134, 141, 159, 168 and 173).
The Hebrew word for precept is Strong’s number 6490. [piqquwd,
pik-kood'; or piqqud, pik-kood'; from H6485; prop. appointed, i.e. a
mandate (of God; plur. only, collect. for the Law):--commandment,
