I want to give some clarity to what is going on with these volumes. Holman Reference had the NAC series of commentaries that they are near completion with, that are based on and use the NIV. Recently B&H publishing has moved to transition to a new series to follow the previous and that is what is reflected here. These volumes are in both series, and as I understand it, as the NAC is updated with the last few volumes, those volumes will be available both in the NAC and in the CSC. This does not mean the CSC series will not contain new content, as Patrick Schreiner has just released a commentary on Acts in the CSC series, which is not in the NAC series. So if you don't have either understand that the NAC is an older series primarily from the 1990's, but with volumes spanning to today, and the CSC contains a slight overlap with some of the newer NAC volumes, but will continue with original content as it keeps going, from newer/younger authors like Patrick Schreiner. As a rule I am a fan of this series for what it is, and unabashedly give it 5 stars. It is quality content, easily read, and applicable. While not the first commentary series I would recommend someone buy, if you are a baptist then this set is essential for your library.Eduardo Vega

I can’t believe that I bought two different commentaries, but the content is very similar. Please see the examples from Isaiah 6:4 from the different commentaries. 6:4 Finally, the prophet observed that the seraphs’ thunderous words of praise were causing the foundations of the doorway (either the threshold or the door pivots) to shake and the room “was being filled” with smoke. The smoke or cloud (Exod 19:16–18; 1 Kgs 8:10–11) is traditionally associated with God’s appearance and serves the function of concealing the awesome majesty of God from human eyes. Each of these experiences stresses the infinite distance between the world of man and the realm of God. Even reading about Isaiah’s experience strikes wonder and awe into a person’s heart; Isaiah is actually standing in the very presence of God Almighty. Smith, G. V. (2007). Isaiah 1–39 (E. R. Clendenen, Ed.; p. 191).

Warning! This is just a reprint of the same four volumes in The New American Commentary series. I informed the customer service team at Logos that they should when advertising this "new" series, at least include the fact that these previous four volumes are a reprint. There was a time when Logos would include information on reprints, that is not the case now.
