Added text of a warning from the Bishop app for people living in persecuted countries.
It may be easiest to work on the world wide Web. For offline use, the Xiphos program can be used. The printed book, Strong's Concordance, is on sale.
Xiphos has the following statement, "Warning: If you live in a persecuted country and do not wish to risk detection you should NOT use the remote installation feature!" That may also apply to any use of the web.<ref>Likewise, as at 04 Feb 2025, the Bishop app contains the warning:- "Although Install Manager provides a convenient way for installing and upgrading SWORD components, it also uses a systematic method for accessing sites which gives packet sniffers a target to lock into for singling out users. IF YOU LIVE IN A PERSECUTED COUNTRY AND DO NOT WISH TO RISK DETECTION, YOU SHOULD *NOT* USE INSTALL MANAGER'S REMOTE SOURCE FEATURES."</ref>
==How to use Strong's Numbers—an example==
Luke 24:4 states, "two men stood by them". The obvious reading of the English is that the two were standing, that is, that the ordinary Greek verb "to stand" is used. That can be checked using Strong's Numbers, with a surprising result. Incidentally, the four accounts of the discovery of the Saviour's resurrection are discussed at the wikiChristian page "[[Resurrection of Jesus - WenhamJesus—Wenham's harmony of the four accounts of the first Easter Sunday]]".
Step (1): Googling "Lk 24:4 Strong" gives a page of the BibleHub website, and hovering on the phrase "stood by" gives the number 2186.
