Ἀμπλίας

The Greek word Ἀμπλίας (Amplias) is a proper name, specifically a person, as indicated in its lexical definition. It is derived from the noun ἄμπлияσμος (ampliasmós), meaning "enlargement" or "increased measure," which may relate to its possible association with abundance or growth. Given its occurrence in the Bible, the name Amplias holds unique significance and has a personal, rather than abstract significance, in the context in which it is used. Since it is not widely attested or used elsewhere, its usage in the Bible remains a one-time instance within the text.
