Last year in July it was said that Buist Fanning was close to submitting a manuscript. The status on their main page still says it’s in writing. when that is finished, it would still have to be reviewed by the editors and then any revisions would need to be made before it could be published, and we would know in advance if It was being put in print soon. I would say if you need it in the next year, you are most likely out of luck.

You might contact Dr Fanning. The response will be much quicker!

How can I contact Dr Fanning?

Dr. Fanning will only know his part of delivering and modifying the manuscript - he has no knowledge of the editing and production process timeline that Faithlife is responsible for.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

In general, if you want to find out how to contact a scholar, Google them, as they usually publish their contact info publicly. Dr Fanning's email address is on his page at his institution, Dallas Theological Seminary:
https://www.dts.edu/employee/buist-fanning/
But as MJ pointed out, he won't know the final timeline, as that will be up to how fast Faithlife can publish it once he sends them the final manuscript. He also might not want to divulge his own personal deadline to some random inquirer who found his email address online, but you could always try.

Rosie,
My experience has been great with emailing seminary professors. In fact most of them get right back with in hours or even a day later. Most who interact on the net are glad to chat and answer questions. I am glad most of the scholars today while working at what the world calls ivory towers are humble, godly men who want to help the body of Christ grow. May they continue to encourage and help those of us in need of amazing resources.

And if you do happen to get a response, let us know! We are very interested in hearing any updates whatsoever

Well, as we enter another year, are there any updates as to potential volumes that may be upcoming? Is there any hope for a volume to be released this year?

Maybe Jake left? Or he posts every couple years?

It would be nice to know the contact person for the EEC is at Faithlife.

Since coming on as General Editor, Tremper Longman and the rest of the EEC editorial team has been hard at work behind the scenes getting the series on track. We've contracted a number of new authors for volumes that had languished for years and are very excited about the caliber of scholarship that will be on display once the series is completed. As for volumes that are closest to publication, the revised manuscripts for both Job and Galatians are currently in-house and are being prepared for publication. We don't have final release dates for those volumes yet.

Still looks like Revelation will not be published until it is history instead of prophecy.

An accidental description of theological views of the Apocalypse!

I bought this when it first came out, 9/14/ 11. This is the last update in 2 years and 8 months. Highly disappointed in the time you have taken with the series. Since 2018 you have published 1 BOOK. I want my money back.

I guess one of the problems is that the money paid 10 years ago (by people such as me) has long since disappeared into the background of faithlife’s running costs, salaries etc. So money expended now by logos on new volumes will not generate as significant a return as if it were a new series. The majority of shipments of new volumes in this series will just be to those who’s money has already been received and spent and so not financially worthwhile.0

Probably doesn't inform FL's performance on their contract. Instead, contributors. I'd be curious what their evangelical excuses were/are. I'm assuming Bob's planned ship date years ago was based on contributor commitments.

Jake, the last volume published was Daniel in 2020. So three years later we are waiting still for the next release.
I have a record of everything you have said and none of it lines up. You are the face of EEC. Yet, it's my sincere belief you don't even know what's going on.

I must admit I have finally given up waiting on Logos to fulfil my order from 2014 for this set. So I just emailed customer services to ask for some sort of refund, perhaps in the form of a Logos credit voucher.
I think that is reasonable given the initial promised dates at time of the order and the lack of keeping those dates. But maybe I am wrong.
I'll let you know how it goes in case someone else is thinking of doing the same!
Jim
