Errors in Mickelson's Enhanced Strong's Dictionary

Post by engellion »

Hi

I've picked up an error in the Mickelson Enhanced Strong's Dictionary.

The definition for G2252 reads:
G2252 ἤμην emen (ay'-mayn) v.
1. I was
[a prolonged form of G2358]
KJV: be, was. (Sometimes unexpressed)
Root(s): G2358
[?]
Both references to G2358 should be G2258. I noticed the Thayer's dictionary module is correct.

Can this be corrected in Mickelson's module?

Also, I was reading through the help file for the ISA program that Costa referred someone to in a forum. The author of that program has made a correction in the Strong's dictionary for G1510:
(old)

G1510 eimi i-mee'

the first person singular present indicative;

a prolonged form of a primary and defective verb; I exist (used only when
emphatic):--am, have been, X it is I, was. See also G1488, G1498, G1511,
G1527, G2258, G2071, G2070, G2075, G2076, G2771, G2468, G5600.

(new)

G1510 eimi i-mee'

the first person singular present indicative;

a prolonged form of a primary and defective verb; I exist (used only when emphatic):--am, have been, X it is I, was. See also G1488, G1498, G1511, G1526, G2070, G2071, G2075, G2076, G2252, G2258, G2277, G2468, G5600, G5607.
The ISA version of Strong's has deleted G1527 (one by one) and added G1526 (they are), deleted G2771 (gain, lucre), and added G2252 (I was), and added G2272 (let him be) and G5607 (being). These last three have G1510 as a root.

I'd like to have a corrected module. Any chance of getting this corrected in the Mickelson's dictionary module?

Thanks,
Paul.

Hello Paul,
thank you for posting these corrections.
I already contacted the author and he has applied the fixes to the original. I will soon have a new version of the Mickelson-Strong dictionary with these (and more fixes) included.
The Mickelson-Strong dictionary is actively supported and updated by it's author,

Hi Costas.

Well it's been over 5 years now since I first posted about this error in Mickelson's Enhanced Strong's Dictionary. I see that the current version of the available module, 0.98 (dated 27 Jun 2009), has not been updated.

Any word if the above corrections were ever made by the author? If so, can we have an updated module?

Thanks,
PaulC

Hmm. "Very soon." Is that like, "I am coming quickly" in Revelation? ;-)
