that's what makes Strongs not very valuable

All Strongs does is list how the KJV translates a word. Not where,why,what tense or gender.

I remember for years being told 'one' in jn 10:30 was the greek word heis and that it means one in number only....because Strongs lumped all the genders under 'heis' when the word was really the neuter form 'hen'

Gotta admit that one is a new one!

Sometimes...

There is something to be said for floating around in the middle of the ocean getting good hot chow every day and a nice shower! Even air conditioning! Compared to carrying pounds and pounds of gear all over mountains, valleys, woodlands, jungle, desert... A friend, a Seal Sniper, for some reason likes to call me a self propelled sand bag...

They are the only ones qualified to interpret scriptures properly and finally.

Bow down and worshiped them you ignorant peasants or else I will unleash my fury upon you.
Stupid is as stupid does...

Hint: When you are trying to be caustic and least learn to spell. It loses any semblance of sarcasm and just makes you appear ignorant.

You know after what you just typed someone is going to catch the above "and least". Isn't it supposed to say, "at least"?

I've done that before though. It always comes back to bite you.

you see how it's lumped all under heis and does not tell you jn 10:30 is hen?

notice none of the definitions all fit heis and not hen?

a lot of people mistakenly read what you just posted to mean the word in jn 10:30 is heis and means one in number...rather than reading the greek and looking up the word hen

Wouldn't someone notice it says that it also includes the neuter hen? This translation in the Interlinear uses Hen, but then references Strong's 1520

1520 [e]
hen
ἕν
one
Adj-NNS
http://interlinearbible.org/john/10-30.htm

So, what are you saying the verse is supposed to say?
