Search difference
Could someone explain the reason for the variation in the search results?
lemma.g:δράκων (King James Version 13 results in 12 verses) Rev13:4 left out.
person:Satan EQUALS dragon (King James Version 11 results in 10 verses)

I'm seeing Rev 13:4 in my search results for the first search. Rev 13:4 is left out of the second search. Is that what you meant? If so, that seems like a tagging oversight on Logos' part. If Rev 13:2 refers to Satan, Rev 13:4 also refers to Satan since it's the same context.
As for Rev 13:11, it says "he spake as a dragon", not as "the dragon" so it wouldn't make since to tag that one as Satan.

... Rev13:4 left out.
person:Satan EQUALS dragon (King James Version 11 results in 10 verses)The RI for KJV bibles use a different manuscript word (δράκοντα) to SBLGNT (δράκοντι) which is used as the basis for Person tagging and the RI for non-KJV bibles.

How can there be a different manuscript word for the same Greek word in the text? "A dragon" and "the dragon" just have different modifiers.That does not make much sense.

The Authorized version used the Textus Receptus (Scrivener) text; most contemporary translations use a critical text. Different texts-different words.
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."
