    First, you will want to search for a verb that has a guttural (aleph, ayin, resh, he, heth), or yod or nun or waw in any of the three root positions:

    Then open a second tab and search for all of the geminate verbs:

    Then open a 3rd tab with the Heb Bible and search for all the hits from tab 1 but exclude all the hits from tab 2:

    That will remove all the geminate forms and will leave you with the verses with strong verbs (ie any verb that does not have the guttural, yod or nun or waw somewhere in the stem) or is geminate.

    Here are your results:

    Double check these results and see if this is what you're looking for. All the credit for these steps in this search goes to Ken Simpson at Accordance.

    Thanks, Brian. This seems rather complicated but on the right track--except that your results appear to give a complete list of geminate verbs, not a complete list of strong verbs.

    I believe that I caught my mistake:

    I needed to remove all of the Geminate Verbs from the weak verbs and that should leave all of the remaining strong verbs:

    Does this work for you?
