Well, if I'm counting right it looks like there will be three releases in 2012: 1,2,3 John in April; Exodus in June; and James in Sept. Anybody heard differently? Also, what is your opinion of the volumes already released?
Those are the release dates from the site, however they are not set in stone.
I have read Ehorn's contribution for Philemon in its entirety, and I was VERY impressed. I have also read Loken's contribution for Ezra/Nehemiah and I thought he did a very good job. Very pleased with the quality of the EEC so far.
The individual slated to write the commentary on the epistles of John is Gary Derickson. Derickson co-authored the following book which is in Logos format. It is a commentary on the Upper Room Discourse.

I happen to know personally the author of the EEC volume on James. I have done some work editing and formatting his contribution and can say first hand that it will be a fine contribution not only to the EEC series, but to James scholarship as well.
One of the things that I find most appealing about the EEC is that the author can continually update his work when he feels the need to, and this update will not have to wait for a second edition. Also, the author has the help of us Logos users in terms of reporting typos and things of that nature.

Clifford,
Will there be a way to let us know when a volume has been updated, and what content has been added or revised?
Back in July of 2010 we got into a brief discussion as to when did Nehemiah rule as governor. The traditional view is that he came to repair the gates and then stayed for the next 12 years as governor.
[That is that the gates and walls had not been fixed after 605 BC]Leslie McFall wrote an article that implied that maybe Nehemiah had been governor ending when Ezra came to Jerusalem. And then came back to repair the walls that perhaps he had built when he was governor all those years ago. [That is the middle of the book of Nehemiah is a flashback to days gone by] [That is he became cup bearer after serving as governor not governor after serving as cup bearer]Does the Evangelical Exegetical Commentary Nehemiah cover that possibility?The article is referenced at http://community.logos.com/forums/p/19225/149316.aspx#149316
Does the Evangelical Exegetical Commentary Nehemiah cover that possibility?
Keep Smiling [:)]
