Hello.

DM's example came from the LXX module, so I had a closer look.

The information shown in the web result for say, Gen 10:12 is wrong
indeed for several words in the sentence, including μεγάλη, which
should have been highlighted in the first place as it match G3173 but
is shown as being associated with G3588.

Note that:

1) the Strong's number tagging for this verse is correct in the LXX
module when viewed with xiphos.
2) The source document for the LXX does not contain any Strong's
number information, those have been added from external source: it is
most possible there are some errors here and there.
3) As the Strong lexicon for greek cover only the words present in the
new testament, there is an important number of words not tagged in the
LXX because they occurs only in the old testament.
