NASB | 1 John 3:6 No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 3:6 No one who abides in Him [who remains united in fellowship with Him--deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin. No one who habitually sins has seen Him or known Him. |
Bible Question:
Can someone please explain this verse from 1 John 3 in relation to 1 John 1:9. Aren't the words in the Amplified that are in brackets []commentary? By the way where is Radioman2? Does any one know? I haven't read anything from him for a while. Asis |
Bible Answer: According to the INTRODUCTION TO THE AMPLIFIED BIBLE: "Brackets [ ] contain justified clarifying words or comments not actually expressed in the immediate original text, as well as definitions of Hebrew and Greek names." (http://www.gospelcom.net/lockman/amplified/ampprin.php) In 1 John 3:6 a study of the Greek words translated "abides", "commits sin", and "known" will reveal that the text enclosed in brackets in the Amplified are justified clarifying words, not commentary. There is a difference. |
