Sources. The definition, derivation and KJV renderings are James Strong's own wording from Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible (1890) — public domain. The numbered senses and the Hebrew–Greek cross-references are the editorial work of the OpenScriptures Strong's dictionary, licensed CC BY-SA 3.0; their sense-outline conventions match the Outline of Biblical Usage (Online Bible, Larry Pierce), noted as a convention match rather than a documented claim.
