Meanings are worked out from Strong’s own derivation notes (Strong’s dictionaries, Open Scriptures, CC BY-SA; see sources & credits): a name built from two words is shown as the two words put together, so the meaning is an explanation of the parts, not a claim about how the name was understood in every period.
