Dear gkjcurious-ga,

There are far too many references to these words in the bible to
detail here, so I refer you to an excellent resource : crosswalk.com

They supply Old and New Testament lexicons. 

"New Testament Greek lexicon based on Thayer's and Smith's Bible
Dictionary plus others; this is keyed to the large Kittel and the
"Theological Dictionary of the New Testament."
"The Old Testament Hebrew lexicon is Brown, Driver, Briggs, Gesenius
Lexicon; this is keyed to the "Theological Word Book of the Old
Testament."

As an example, this is how to research ?star? in the Old Testament. 

Click on this link and you will taken to the start page.
http://bible.crosswalk.com/Lexicons/
Click the link on Old Testament> Enter ?star? in the search box as an
English term for King James Version lexicon.
You will then see entries for the word star. Each link will reveal the
Original Word, the Word Origin, Transliterated Word, Phonetic
Spelling, sound file with the word, definitions and links to each
verse in the Old Testament in which it appears. Carefully check the
definition as they will not always match the concept you may be
seeking.

I hope this answers your question. If it does not, or the answer is
unclear, then please ask for clarification of this research before
rating the answer. I shall respond to the clarification request as
soon as I receive it.
Thank you

The very subject got me studying it.
Job 38;31.." Can you tie fast the bonds of the Ki'mah constellation [ Pleiades?]
or can you loosen the very cords of the Ke'sil constellation [ Orion?]
32. Can yopu bring forth the Maz'za-roth constellation in its appointed time.
and as for the Ash [Ursa Major?]constellation, alongside its sons, can
you conduct them?.
33. Have you come to know the statutes of the heavens, or could you
put its authority  the earth?
God was answering Job out of the windstorm [ Job 38]
Job 26;7.."He is stretching out the north over the empty place [ North 
Pole?]..Hanging the earth upon nothing [ A view of the earth from space?]
verse 10..He has described a circle upon the face of the waters [
partial eclipse?]..to where light ends in darkness...[ Total eclipse?]
Isaiah 40;22..There is one who is dwelling above the circle of the
earth, the dwellers in which are as grasshoppers.
Isaiah was written 732 years before Jesus and could be a basis for
mariners of that time to know the earth was round.
verse 26..Raise your eyes high up and see. Who has created these
things [ the stars]. It is the One who is bringing forth the army of
them even by number, all of whom he calls even by name. Due to the
abundance of dynamic energy, he also being vigorous in power, not one
of them is missing"
Genesis 1;1..In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
The extent of the heavenly bodies have not yet been determined and may never be. 
Isaiah 55;9.."For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways
are higher than your ways, and my thoughts, than your thoughts".
