The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia Online Previous: COMPLAINING Next: COMPOSITION; COMPOUND COMPLETEkom-plet': In the King James Version for pleroo, the verb ordinarily used for the coming to pass of what had been predicted. the King James Version translates this "complete" in Colossians 2:10; 4:12 to express the final and entire attainment of what is treated, leaving nothing beyond to be desired or hoped for; otherwise rendered in the Revised Version (British and American) ("made full"). In the Revised Version (British and American), c. appears once for Greek artios, from aro, "to join," in 2 Timothy 3:17, in sense of "accurately fitted for," where the King James Version has "perfect."
