In Genesis 17:6, the NASB 95 on Logos reads, "I have made you exceedingly fruitful." My print editions of NASB95, the BW10 edition of NASB95, and all other major translations read, "I will make you ..."

Is this an error in the Logos edition?

    Can't say, but note that Gen 17:5 often reverses the tense  --> "I have" to "I will" and vice-versa.

    Accordance and Biblegateway both say "I will make you..." so you may be right, there may be an error here. You should report it through the report typo feature.

    It might be an error, but it might be that there are simply different editions of the NASB 95 text which are small change and thus not officially released as "updated version" by the publisher. I think we had a discussion about such in another thread.

    That was the NKJV though.
