About these sources and counts

Counts describe the selected edition and book filter, not every textual tradition. An occurrence is a matching source word token; a verse may contain several occurrences. Pagination does not limit these totals.

Exact written-word searches retain accents and spelling. Greek lemma coverage is incomplete. OSHB includes Hebrew and Aramaic; its lemma identities retain prefixes and homograph qualifiers. For compound OSHB tokens, Strong’s lookup uses the source’s first lexical number, not every component.

A Strong’s number is a lexical index, not a definition. English words are not automatically mapped to Greek or Hebrew. Use the NET reference to read the English context; select an original word below to search its exact written form.
