Commentaries on Isaiah

[Scott]

What are people's favorite commentaries on Isaiah?

 

[AV1611]

Currently I am going through Isaiah with Edward J. Young, Calvin and John Gill

Calvin, Poole and Henry. J.A. Alexander on Isaiah is also quite good.

I found J A Motyer's The Prophecy of Isaiah to be quite good. He uses the NIV as the basis, but from the way he writes it, I think he would much prefer the AV.

Don't get the "abridged" version of this same book - the one that is part of the Tyndale OT commentary series.

Actually, it isn't abridged. Motyer wrote it completely from scratch after he published the "big" one, according to his preface/introduction. Most of his basic conclusions are the same, but he did take the opportunity to clarify things here and there, I believe. But, the Tyndale commentary is not just an abridged rehash of the larger one.
