What Version Is Vine's Keyed to? How to Change?

I don't think Vines is a complete list of all King James words. Sodomist does not appear in the KJV and prostitute appears only once and that is as a verb (Lev. 19:29).

Sorry, you got gypped.  The KJV  has 10,867 unique words in the OT and 6, 063 in the NT.  You could add up the Apocrypha to tally up 6,758.  The whole KJV Bible has a total of 14,568 unique words, although figures vary.   Actually Mr. Vine didn't include a lot, 'cuz his "complete expository dictionary" only has a little over 6,000 words.    Perhaps "complete" refers to expository and not words. 

Sorry.  But you can probably get a refund.  Personally, I don't want a refund.  Even if Bill Mounce says Nave was wrong here and there and that his own dictionary is better, still I like Nave's if for no other reason than I cut my teeth on it.   Bill's book claims to be complete also, but I bet a plug nickel it isn't.  I use both to be safe.  

Note:  I didn't count words myself, I took the Internet's word for it.

Wait.  There is more.  My whole Logos library (medium-sized) only turned up "sodomist" in the Miriam Webster Dictionary, so it's a word all right.  Sodomists/sodomistic show up in Faithlife Bible, a few times in Tozer and in Themelios.  "Prostitute" is a tad more ubuquitous and unlike sodomist actually occurs in the KJV one time.  But both are iniquitous.        

The Basic problem with the "Complete" title appears to lie with the publisher who gave it that name.  It is not complete.  I suppose that Logos must use the publisher's name if Logos will see it.  However, Logos ought to prominently warn the buyer that it is not complete.  In any case, the work is still worth buying.

The question is not whether or not an author should list the KJV words of the Bible & then give Greek & Hebrew definitions (instead of listing Greek & Hebrew words themselves as headwords).  The question is what in fact is this product.  Vine isn't alive so that you could rebuke him for doing this.  I think it is great that he did do this for persons who don't know Greek & Hebrew.  And those who do know Gk & Heb, can certainly still use this.

In the past, I, too, had difficulty locating the KJV word in Vine’s. Here’s how I solved it:

1) Link Vine’s to Strong's Enhanced Lexicon.

2) Right click on the target word in the KJV Bible and open it in Strong’s.

3) Since Vine’s is linked to Strong’s it will open to the section in Vine’s where the original language word is located.

Note: The location in Vine’s may or may not be the same as the English word in the KJV, but it will never-the-less take you to Vine’s definition / explanation / opinion of the original language word that was translated into the KJV English word.

I suppose that serious Bible students have no interest in anything called "Strong's";  they will be consulting Hebrew Lexicons like the classic Brown-Driver-Briggs or Halot (etc.).  

Now as to your advised method (thanks) can you prove that it works by actually using it to find what the KJV word sodomite means?  You need to go from sodomist to qadesh and find qadesh explained in this meaning by the "Complete Vine's."  Let me know if you are successful by your method .

Yes, the KJV word is sodomite, not sodomist (easy slip on which to make a typo or goof).  The American Standard Version of 1901 changed sodomite to sodomist, probably because the term was used not for a person born in Sodom, but a person who acts like one (figurative extension).

 But the variation between sodomite & sodomist is not the real problem.  For if one goes to where sodomist would be in Vine's, one doesn't find it of course, but one should find sodomite (ideally) -- and sodomite is not a head word; yet it is just the kind of thing one would like a Hebrew professor's opinion on (does it mean really a sodomist, person who practices sodomy?  Or does it mean only a Temple/shrine prostitute?
