G5157 tropḗ

τροπή

trop-ay'

turning

Looking for Hebrew H5157 nâchal? It has the same number in Strong's Hebrew lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of G5157. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.

tropḗ appears once in Scripture, in James 1:17. 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.
