I have been trying to correct some of the frequency usage data in Mounce's
first-year textbook as I teach from it this year. For hOS, on page 113,
Mounce gives the frequency as 1,365 times. This is the same number given in
a couple of other sources, Robert VanVoorst's Building Your New Testament
Greek Vocabulary (p. 21) and Warren Trenchard's The Student's Complete
Vocabulary Guide to the Greek New Testament. However, I suspect this figure
is low. Accordance gives the figure as 1407, and I don't know why that
figure should be wrong, but I notice that in Zondervan's new Greek English
Concordance to the New Testament, which was done with computer technology,
lists the figure as 1411. Any ideas?
