Your edition of Tanhuma is indeed vastly different from the standard printed
edition.  It was published by Buber from a Cairo Geniza manuscript (or
possibly several manuscripts-not sure about the details.)  There is some
overlap, but there is a lot of material in Tanhuma Buber that does not
appear in the standard editions and vice versa.  It's good to have both.
Unless you're interested in trying to reconstruct an ur-edition of Tanhuma,
you can just treat them as separate works and mine each for its interesting
material.

 

Kol tuv,
