Go to KJV & turn on Strong's number. E.g. in Gen 1:1, when you right click
on <07225> and choose 'Dictionary Lookup', your chosen Hebrew dictionary
show 07225, right? Try do the same at the end of the verse: <0776>.
Instead of showing 0776, <0776>. comes up.

Go to verse 7 where there is '<07549>:', the same thing happens when
there's is a colon after the right angle bracket. In verse 29, there's a
semicolon like '<02233>;'.
