Use Strong's responsibly
Strong's is an index and starting point, not the final meaning of a word. Do not build doctrine from a gloss, root, or number. Test meaning by sentence, grammar, authorial usage, context, and the passage argument.
Thayer's Greek Lexicon
ἐρίζω: (future ἐρίσω, cf. Buttmann, 37 (32)); (ἔρις); to wrangle, engage in strife (Latinrixari): Mat 12:19, where by the phrase οὐκ ἐρίσει the Evangelist seems to describe the calm temper of Jesus in contrast with the vehemence of the Jewish doctors wrangling together about tenets and practices. ((From Homer down.))
