DEEP KJV WORD STUDY

Dross

Begin with the exact English word as it appears in the King James Bible. Follow its whole-Bible usage, book distribution, related indexed forms, Webster 1828, every occurrence, and the occurrence-specific Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek mappings behind it.

KJV DISTRIBUTION

Where dross appears.

This is exact English-word usage from the canonical KJV token index, not a Strong's estimate.

Psalms 11 verses Proverbs 22 verses Isaiah 22 verses Ezekiel 32 verses
ORIGINAL-LANGUAGE MAP

Which Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek words stand behind this KJV word?

These relationships come from exact verse + token-position mappings. We do not assume that one English spelling always equals one Strong's number. A single English token can also carry more than one source tag, so the Strong's-link total can exceed the number of English occurrences.

Strong's data is a concordance/lexical reference layer. Scripture context controls interpretation. Lexical source data is shown separately from future TWBC editorial teaching.

EVERY OCCURRENCE

Read the word in context.

2 occurrences match the current filters. Each row keeps its exact KJV token position so Original Word and TSK remain occurrence-specific.

Isaiah 1:22
H5509

Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:

And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:

English meaning and historical usage.

Dictionary data is kept visibly separate from Scripture and from lexical Strong's data.

dross

DROSS, noun [G.]

1. The recrement or despumation of metals; the scum or extraneous matter of metals, thrown off in the process of melting.

2. Rust; crust of metals; an incrustation formed on metals by oxydation.

3. Waste matter; refuse; any worthless matter separated from the better part; impure matter.

The worlds glory is but dross unclean.

Noah Webster, An American Dictionary of the English Language (1828). A conservative base-form lookup may be used when the exact inflected KJV form is not a Webster headword.

SOURCE & METHOD
