I've had a similar problem working on a program of Hebrew flash cards for the
computer. I even tried resorting to using Strong's numbers due to the
presence of prefixes and infixes which make a simple search (even with "wild
cards") fail to produce many forms of a word. I found that even there there
is no agreement. If I take the count from the KJV or the NASV I get
different quantities. Sometimes we are at the mercy of those who tag these
items in the software.
