Those verses you posted do sound good. I don't know Greek so I would have to trust the translators. A brother at church had that Bible. Kalled2Preach, could you post John 3:16 also, for my own curiosity, Exodus 21:22? Do you know any other verses that have noteworthy clarifications?

"For God loved the world in this way: He gave His *One and Only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
The word with the star before it has a bullet by it which takes you to a glossary in the back with notes on what that word means. In this case, the phrase is "One and Only" and it says this of the phrase: "Or One of a kind, or incomparable, or only begotten; the Greek word can refer to someone's only child such as in Luke 7:12; 8:42; 9:48. It can also refer to someone's special child as in Hebrews 11:17".

"When men get in a fight, and hit a pregnant woman so that her children are born [prematurely], but there is no injury, the one who hit hit her must be fined as the woman's husband demands from him, and he must pay according to judicial assessment" Exodus 21:22
The word in brackets has bottom brackets in the text itself which mean that the word was placed there by the translators to help clarify the meaning of the passage. After this particular word there is a footnote which reads, "Either a live birth or a miscarriage".

I can't think of any other verses off the top of my head right now.
