Can not search for some Strong's numbers on Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament (TWOT)

I brought up the Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament. At the search bar at the top, I entered "120". It did not give for "Strong's Hebrew". However, when I entered "121", it did give me a choice for "Strong's Hebrew".

The work-around was to go into the Strong's concordance, and right-click on the Hebrew characters (very mysterious way to do it). I was able to select "Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament", and it brought the entry up.

I am simply saying, there has got a better way to do it. Preferable, I will be able to enter "Strong's Hebrew #120", and it will bring it up.

Any suggestions?

From Enhanced Strong's Lexicon you will note that it says for 121 "The same as 120". Both numbers reference TWOT 25a, but the TWOT entry only references Strong's 121. Basically, TWOT uses the one entry for both Adam (proper name) and man whereas Strong's recognises them as homonyms. TWOT is concerned about a theological study of words whereas Strong's is more concerned about usage.

If you want to study words via Strong's numbers then start with Enhanced Strong's Lexicon and let it direct you to other lexicons/dictionaries.

TWOT does not have all Strongs Hebrew # (e.g. Strongs Hebrew 118, 119, 120, 126, 128, 131, 132, ...).

Option: right click on a word in a Resource with Strongs Number tagging, then click Strong's Hebrew #:

If "Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament" appears on left side, then click it. Otherwise can click Dictionary of Biblical Languages with Semantic Domain: Hebrew (DBL Hebrew) -or- Enhanced Strong's Lexicon (ESL), then click corresponding TWOT #.

Since DBL Hebrew has many more Strong's number, personally use advanced prioritization so can click on Strongs number in DBL Hebrew to open ESL entry (or hover over Strongs # in DBL Hebrew for ESL entry pop-up). For Strongs numbers, the DBL lexicons (Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic) are my top preferred lexicons. Forum discussion => DBL Greek lexicon link problems includes screen shot of my lexicon prioritization plus couple other approaches.
