Can anyone direct me how  I can find the total occurrences of a word and where they are used elsewhere in scripture?  When I click on a Strongs word in the dictionary, it tells at the bottom of the box the total number of times word is found in scripture.  I would like to compare the passages of the different occurrences of some of the words I look up.... Thanks So Much!!!

You can do a search with Bibles that contain Strongs Numbers (KJV+, HOT+,...). Click on KJV+ (by active window) Bible tab and search  OR select a word and right click.

Before I can answer your question must you be clear.

1) The number of times a word is found in a translation(KJV, ASV,...) OR in a source (Hebrew/Greek)?

2) The root word with other forms OR the exact match?

3) The same translated word in another Strong Number?

 

For 3)  if you use the KJV only: download King James Concordance (KJC) from E-Sword (select and download/start)

Click on King James Concordance (KJC) and click on the Dictionary tab (near Tools) and search for a Dictionary search.

 

light has 34 definitions or is used in 34 Strong Numbers in the KJV

earth has 12 definitions or is used in 12 Strong Numbers in the KJV (H127 H772 H776 H778 H2789 H3007 H6083 G1093 G1919 G2709 G3625 G3749)

 

For example G3625 οἰκουμένη oikoumenē is 14 times translated as "world" and once as "earth" (Luk 21:26) in the KJV
While some other translations always translated G3625 as "world" .
Do you see the problem of your question? Every translation has his own word list.
