    "(I dare not argue with the AMP translators)*"

    Yes, you are inclined to accept anything you regard as authoritative rather than investigate and ponder on the available material and arrive at your own evaluation. You also seem prone to give added weight to pontifications by those who like to parade letters after their name. Often letters that bear no relationship to what is being opined.

    My advice would be not only to argue with the AMP translators but let them know they are wrong by colouring and adding to what is written from their own preconceptions and dogma fueled beliefs ... eg the bolded section below as well as the interpretation of "in Our image".
    No doubt wotsup will be along to demolish their claims.

    The less said about the "authority over ...", the better.
    Surely one of the most unwise decrees in the whole Bible.


    "“Let Us (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) make man in Our image,
    according to Our likeness

    [not physical, but a spiritual personality and moral likeness]; and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the cattle, and over the entire earth, and over everything that creeps and crawls on the earth.”"
