Strong's Concordance
I'm looking at Strong's Concordance, Logos edition. It's a no brainer for me.
But in the reviews someone noted that it doesn't tell you what verses a word is in, that it just tells you this word is in this many verses. Is this true?
Another question: Logos has a built in concordance.
Is the Strong's one better? Or if I buy it, will I have better options somehow?

The Strongs Concordance was a brilliant idea in the late 1800's. It is essentially limited to the KJV text (with some additions) and has no particular advantage in computer applications. The Logos concordance is integrated with the other word-oriented words, is comprehensive re: critical editions at least.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
