Looking for Hebrew H4141 mûwçâb? It has the same number in Strong's Hebrew lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of G4141. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.
plḗssō appears once in Scripture, in Revelation 8:12. In the Doxa app, open that verse, keep your notes on it, and ask Doxa Engage how it connects to what God has said to you.

In the King James Version
