It's like doing this with the word HAPPY.
Happy (WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY)
HAP'PY a. [from hap.]
1. Lucky; fortunate; successful.
Chimists have been more happy in finding experiments, than the causes of them.
So we say, a happy thought; a happy expedient.
2. Being in the enjoyment of agreeable sensations from the possession of good; enjoying pleasure from the gratification of appetites or desires.
And once we get all these variations of the SAME WORD HAPPY, we write a sentence like this:
"I was so HAPPY (lucky; fortunate; successful, in the enjoyment of agreeable sensations from the possession of good) to meet you at the coffee shop while you were agreeing with Timmy of how stupid everyone on AFF is." 
I did not give commentary on the parentheses, but THE VARIOUS CORRECT DEFINITIONS of the single word. A dictionary definition is not a commentary. And that is all that the amplified bible did.
If you still disagree, you just want to disagree. lol |
No Mike, this isn't true. The Amplified Bible is NOT just expounding on word definitions. I just grabbed mine and opened randomly to the New Testament. There are two forms of additions to the text; 1) Parentheses; and 2) Brackets.
The Parentheses contain additional words that help clarify the meaning of words. The brackets, however, "contain justified clarifying words or comments not actually expressed in the immediate original text" and that's a direct quote.
