Dear Bob:
e-Sword has absolutely NOTHING to do with translations or their accuracy. e-Sword is merely an electronic device to search words as they appear in dozens of translations.
The world "howl" didn't come from anywhere. It's been there for two thousand years, as it is also in a dozen other Scriptures. Dr. Strong is not the final word on the definition of all words, either. He sometimes gives contradicting definitions of the same word in the same definition. Example: aion, which he defines as "an age" and "eternity."
God be with you,
Ray
