oh, hmm, i meant the lex quote that I gave for "Nature," (i think), and i just noted that your orig def wasn't part of it? Biblehub, for what it's worth. Surely yours is better. I just found a resource for the old Strong's, interestingly enough, hmm

I won't use Strongs. Strongs is outdated. It's mostly a concordance not a comprehensive lexicon and it really only gives a list of how words are translated in the KJV.
Also it tends to lump everything under one heading. For example the Greek word for one. There are three genders and the gender can affect the meaning or use but Strongs does not really tell you that. It lumps them all under the masculine Heis. So people wrongly think every greek word is Heis for One
