Bible Question:
Does the Amplified Bible have the same meaning as the King James Version? |
Bible Answer: Source: http://www.innvista.com/culture/religion/bible/versions/ab.htm Abbreviation: AB Released: 1965 Contents: Old Testament, New Testament Source Used: Zondervan Publishing House (1965) Location: Tyndale House, Cambridge, United Kingdom This translation is based on the American Standard Version. It uses a system of synonyms, punctuation, typographical features, and clarifying words or phrases to reveal shades of meaning of the key words in the original text. The aim of the translation was that it be true to the original languages, be grammatically correct, be understandable to the masses, and give the Lord Jesus Christ His proper place which the Word gives Him. It is not an attempt to duplicate what has already been achieved but to progress beyond the point where others have stopped. The translators were a committee of qualified Hebrew and Greek scholars. The Amplified New Testament was published in 1958; the Amplified Old Testament, Part 1 (Genesis to Esther), in 1964; and the Amplified Old Testament, Part 2 (Job to Malachi), in 1962. |
