DEEP KJV WORD STUDY

KJV DISTRIBUTION

Where generation appears.

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

Genesis 33 verses Exodus 54 verses Numbers 22 verses Deuteronomy 99 verses Judges 21 verses 2 Kings 22 verses Esther 11 verses Psalms 1716 verses Proverbs 55 verses Ecclesiastes 21 verses Isaiah 95 verses Jeremiah 43 verses Lamentations 21 verses Daniel 42 verses Joel 32 verses Matthew 1313 verses Mark 54 verses Luke 1413 verses Acts 33 verses Hebrews 11 verses 1 Peter 11 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.

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

1. Production; formation; as the generation of sounds or of curves or equations.

2. A single succession in natural descent, as the children of the same parents; hence, an age. Thus we say, the third, the fourth, or the tenth generation Genesis 15:16.

O faithless and perverse generation Luke 9:41.

4. Genealogy; a series of children or descendants from the same stock.

This is the book of the generations of Adam. Genesis 5:1.

5. A family; a race.

6. Progeny; offspring.
