               There are times when the Strong’s dictionary definition of a word contains some error, or is deficient
               in not showing the full range of meaning of a specific Hebrew or Greek word. This makes it
               necessary for the student of the Scriptures to look at all of the occurrences of a Hebrew or Greek
               word in order to establish its meaning from the context in which it appears. For example, yesterday
               a brother in Christ e-mailed me regarding the Strong’s definition for the Greek word “aionios” found
               in Jude 1:7.


               Jude 7
               Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to
               fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of
               eternal fire.
               KJV


               In the original Greek, the word translated as “eternal” in the KJV Bible is “aionios.” Following is
               Strong’s definition.


               NT:166
               aionios (ahee-o'-nee-os); from NT:165; perpetual (also used of past time, or past and future as
               well):
               KJV - eternal, for ever, everlasting, world (began).
