AMPLIATIO is, when demonstratives or epithets are predicated of their subjects, even though the reason of so denominating them has ceased; or, when, though the thing is changed, the old name is retained. Sal. GLASSII Philol. S. liii. Tract, i. Can. iii. p. m. 538, etc. For instance:-Mat 10:3, , that is, who formerly had been a publican: Mat 9:9. Comp. the Gnom. on this passage.-Joh 9:17, -i.e. Joh 9:24.<\/p>\n
Another kind of AMPLIATIO is [one which they call more specially Prolepsis], if the designation of a thing is taken from the future event; or, if a thing is described not so much such as it now is, as such as it is about to be. GLASS. L. c. p. 542, e.g.-Luk 2:11, , on which the Gnom. at Luk 2:30 remarks, The heavenly beings give the infant the appellation Saviour in the way of Ampliatio.-Joh 10:16, -other sheep, i.e. future and foreseen: The Gnom. on the passage.-1Co 14:22 : Jam 2:23 : See Gnomon. Comp. Flacius Key to Scripture, P. ii. Tract. iv. p. 299; and as to Prolepsis of Construction, p. 225.<\/p>\n
