I'm guessing the answer is as simple as others have suggested: the revision has occurred too recently to be included. I'm pretty confident of this because neither does the set include two other recent, 2017 volumes: Lindsay Wilson on Proverbs and Mary Evans on Judges and Ruth. I guess we're just lucky that Eckhard Schnabel got his Mark volume out earlier in the year.

I'm a little confused by this list. How many commentaries (in the series) are there currently for each book in the Bible?
For example, according to the product listings:

Library shows one more replacement plus two revisions:
Thankful Year, Series, and Author prefixes can be added to Titles so can see years between revision/replacement.

Wow. Did you add the prefixes manually?
Joshua Tan:Wow. Did you add the prefixes manually?
Yes, see reply => https://community.logos.com/forums/p/139386/890581.aspx#890581 (usually include Author in Title prefix)
Joshua Tan: I'm a little confused by this list. How many commentaries (in the series) are there currently for each book in the Bible?
Yes, Joshua, the list is quite confusing. KS4J introduces some helpful language. Some volumes (e.g. Deuteronomy, Esther, Proverbs Mark) are being replaced; a new author is writing a new volume. Others are being revised, with the same author updating their own work (e.g. John, 2 Corinthians). So counting or listing them isn't a simple task.
As I noted earlier, this is further confused by the 2008 repackaging. The original volume on Deuteronomy (by Thompson) was first published in 1974. But, as you've noticed, the Logos version often provides only the 2008 re-release date. That gives rise to the sense that a new volume on the same book (by Woods) in 2013 is surprisingly hasty.
My own additional confusion is that I've got two Logos copies of most of the old versions. Perhaps the original UK version has now been supplemented by the US release? That may have been naturally gifted to me, or I may have picked up the other release when buying a few additional volumes at some point. Any clever insights welcome. (I'll have to trawl KS4J's list to see if there are hints... )

The LLS number & date at the bottom of the resource Information page should give some insights.

Thanks, Dave. Yes, now that I look, one version gives its file ID and filename as the series/volume and the other lists the same info with a US suffix. For example, TOTC20PR and TOTC20PRUS.
Now that I've had a moment to explore a couple of other differences, there are a few incongruities. Unsure whether the US set or (the one that I'll call) the UK edition is preferable:
In short, the UK version seems much more usable, so it's surprising or disappointing to observe the shortcomings in the more updated US release.
