How many verse of the Bible have been officially defined by the Magisterium?

You tell me. I've already had to show you where only the rcc can interpret scripture.

Not gonna do all your work for you.

Paragraph 85 is saying IN CONTEXT is that the Magisterium is the only authoritative body that can define dogma. No other church can tell the Catholic Church what the Catholic Church believes. Read from paragraph 80-98

That is the response I get from prots that think they know what they are talking about.

From the Catholic answers web site Peggy Frye: Only seven passages of Scripture have had their senses partially—but not fully—defined by the extraordinary magisterium. These definitions were made by the Council of Trent (see "The Limits of Scriptural Interpretation" in the January 2001 issue of This Rock):

The reference to being "born of water and the Spirit" in John 3:5 includes the idea of baptism.

In telling the apostles, "Do this [the Eucharist] in memory of me" in Luke 22:19 and 1 Corinthians 11:24, Jesus appointed the apostles priests.

In Matthew 18:18 and John 20:22–23, Jesus conferred on the apostles the power to forgive sins; everyone does not share this power.

Romans 5:12 refers to the reality of original sin.

The presbyters referred to in James 5:14 are ordained, not merely elder members of the Christian community.

Seven out of the entire Bible.
