I uploaded an .HTM file of the Vine's Expository Dictionary of the Old and New Testament Words. It was posted online and stated there was no copyright as it had expired. The version was a PDF which I converted to .HTM. You can add this into the Topics within e-sword.

Enjoy.

The PDF copy might not be under copy right, by there already is an e-sword module of the Combined Vine's (both OT and NT).  It is a premium module...probably under copy right.

 

This is the premium edition of this famous Bible study classic. It includes not only Vine's famous New Testament dictionary, but an extensive Old Testament counterpart as well, edited by Merrill F. Unger, the famous Old Testament scholar. All entries in both O.T. and N.T. dictionaries are organized alphabetically in English, along with the Hebrew or Greek words from which they are translated. Vine's famous insights into the various shades of meaning, plus related Scripture references are included. Keyed throughout to Strong's numbering system. Warren Wiersbe says: " ... one of my favorite tools ... a great time-saver for the busy student."

I was under the impression that Vines was always copywrited?

I Know I paid a small fee for it and didn't buy more than one copy.

 

Some premium moduals I've got more than one copy.

They are all a Blessing.

It may have been renewed under GATT.  However, if it wz published in US 1st or simultaneously in both Europe and US (assuming that year is the same in both Europe and US for publication) and not renewed then PD.  GATT cannot restore it.  It only restores works published in Europe 1st.  

 

There wz a supreme court decision on works that were published earlier in Europe that fell out of copyright in US.

The original Vine's NT is public domain.  Period.

 

The version that can be purchased has an OT section which is not PD.  And I believe some of the NT has been edited/annotated, enough that the publishers are claiming it's a new version.  so, obviously, that wouldn't be PD either.

I bought the Vines Complete Expository dictionary for E-sword and installed it. But It seems that it cannot use the link feature in E-sword. Am I missing something or it simply cannot be done?

Not too sure by what you mean by the "link feature." Can you go into a bit more detail as to what the actual issue is that you are experiencing?

 

Blessings,

When using the KJV+ in the Bibles window, and clicking on a strong's number, there are some dictionaries - in the Dictionary Window-  that are linked to the Bibles window using the "Synchronize Lookup" (the icon is a little chain). For Example, if I click over "Father G3962", and I automatically see G3962, in Strong's, for example. With Vines, I have to manually search for G3962 in order to find a definition. Considering that Vines is a paid module, I expected it to intergrate just as well as the free modules.

It seems that the strongs numbers in Vines are not formatted correctly for e-Sword, the good news is that this can be fixed using e-Sword Tooltip NT

Or, incorrect settings in e-Sword: Options -> Strong's # ToolTip ; check to see if Vines is listed and available.
