Thanks for the clarification. I note that this does not apply to BDB and
probably Gesenius (GKC) because these works are out of copyright.

There are two issues at hand.

1) The copyright of printed material is one issue.

BDB and GKC would be in the public domain. (GKC is dated 1910, I believe.)


2) The digitization of the material may also be copyrighted.

In other words, one ought not take digitized material from a Bible software company, Perseus, TLG, etc., if the digitization is copyrighted but the material is in public domain.
