No, it follows the 1769 version of the KJV. No commentary after the 1800s follows the 1611 KJV version.

answer 3
While it follows along with the KJV nicely, I would have to say, No. For example in Gen. 5: 1-2, "This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of Elohim made he him; male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created."
The use of Elohim in this verse is rendered simply "God" in the KJV. I can't find specifically what translation is used, but it could be the ASV of 1901. Mention is made of the Revised Greek text in the commentary, but that is all I can find for now. If you are curious about 1 John 5:7, the commentator doesn't really treat it, but mentions the lack of any manuscript evidence prior to the 5th century AD.

This commentary was first published in the late 1890s. As a set it has changed publishers several times and so has had multiple publication dates. The set is currently on it's 3rd printing by Hendrickson.

Question
I would like to know what the date of the first edition pulpit commentary was?
I am looking at investing a sizable investment (to me) in a good set of commentaries of the whole Bible I understand that they are dated. I am looking to find out how dated. IE. Are they written in the old english that I will find difficult to use Hermeneutical interpretation with?
