Word stems are the dictionary form of the word (also called lexeme), if
I understand what DM is getting at. For example, in English, the word
"run" is the like the word stem, but when you put it in past tense you
get "ran." Greek and Hebrew actually change the beginning and ending of
the word to represent this, so searching for a word can be hard unless
you can search by word stem. Since the MorphGNT module has word stems
tagged, you could do quite interesting searches using that feature. For
example, you could search for every place the word "run" appears in any
form (in Greek), whether it is past, present, future, or whatever. That
way you can do a word study on the word "run".<br>

Strong's numbers.
While I was at it I enable the work that Sijo did to add the ability
to search by word stems.
To take advantage of these changes, get the latest build sometime
tomorrow and drop and re-add the index for a Bible.
