The Strong's Deception

[chunkofcoal]

Strong recorded how King James, and crew, defined these words. We have much greater resources these days than in the times of King James.

I gather great insight from the work of Jeff Benner, as I continue to grow in my understanding of Ancient Hebrew.

I understand studying the words. Like what are "conies"? lol!
The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks;
(Pro 30:26)
I recently did a search to find out what animal got translated as "coney".
As for Jeff Benner and the ancient Hebrew, they at least used to have modules available to download to the e-sword program I like to use. I had it on my old computer; very interesting.

Well, I'll try. H3 translated as "greenness" (Job 8:12)) and "fruit" (Song 6:11) connected to the word for "father" -
Fathers produce "fruit", which can mean children, but fathers produce "fruit" meaning what comes from oneself. (For the idea of "what comes from oneself" see Matt. 7:15-20 for example. )
Keeping that in mind, the first example in Job 8, where the word is translated as "greenness" you might want to read the whole chapter.

The second verse using H3-
Son 6:11 I went down into the garden of nuts to see the "fruits" of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.
Song of songs is about good fruits. Our Fathers "fruit", and how we become His "fruit":
Mat 5:43-45 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. (44) But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; (45) That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

I like the thinking and will look deeper into this.
Thank you.

Interesting that James Strong was a American Wesleyan theologian .

Even though he may not have been on the money, yet the work was a noble one.

I'm going to take this time to make not of this point. I have been seeing this pattern throughout this study. I'll start of by saying that in the earliest ancient Hebrew manuscripts, there were no spaces between the otiot. Understanding this sheds insight on the ancient Hebrew understanding of the Ten Words (the Ten Commandments). Any spaces that were placed between the otiot, creating separate words, was done as a matter of interpretation of the word, However as a single word, the word is open to deeper interpretations.

That said the same Zayin, Qoph, Nun arrangement that we see in H2204 thru H2208, is the same arrangement that we see in H2209 followed by a He.

Let's dig deeper Strong's presentation of H2209.

According to traditional understanding of Hebrew, a word followed by a He, is indicative of third person, singular, feminine possessive, Her, or in this case, Her old age.

So we see that He means Her. All kidding aside. let's dig deeper.

Strong's Hebrew: 2209. זִקְנָה (ziqnah) -- Old age, elderliness

biblehub.com

However notice that this Strong's number is assigned to multiple references to which share differing suffixes:

In 1 Kings 15:23, His old age has been assigned to Her old age.
