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.

As a title of respect, it is applied to kings, Genesis 40:1. 2 Samuel 19:7. to princes and nobles, Gen 42.

Christ is called the lord of glory, 1 Corinthians 2:8. and lord of lords, Revelation 19:1.
LORD, verb transitive To invest with the dignity and privileges of a lord
LORD, verb intransitive To domineer; to rule with arbitrary or despotic sway; sometimes followed by over, and sometimes by it, in the manner of a transitive verb.

I see them lording it in London streets.
They lorded over them whom now they serve.
