The Amplified Bible was the first Bible whose chief scholar was a woman, France E. Siewert, in the 60s! This Bible is not very well known which can be partially attributed to attitudes towards women in leadership at the time. In an attempt to make scripture more understandable, the Amplified Bible makes heavy use of definitions and synonyms within scripture to “amplify” the meaning of the words. This “amplification” is a unique feature to this translation but also presents a unique problem. Listen in to find out more how this translation was put together and how to use it as part of a Bible study toolkit.

My goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3
