Best Answer

Strong's has a good Hebrew and Greek Dictionary at the end. The numbers referred to after specific words tell you where you can find the particular word in the dictionary. This is extremely helpful if you do not know either Hebrew or Greek, as you only need to know the number and whether it is going to be in the Hebrew or Greek dictionary. This is also quite simple as if the word is in the Old Testament it will be in the Hebrew dictionary, or if it is in the New Testament it will be in the Greek dictionary. Vines Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words also keys words to the numbers used in Strong's, as well as Strong's Exhaustive Concordance.

How do you read a scripture quote?

When quoting scripture, you say "In John 3:16 it says that 'For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life'." or you can say "In John Chapter 3, Verse 16 it says that 'For God so loved the world...'" To say just the numbers or to quote chapter and verse is your choice because either is correct.
