Can anyone share their opinions on the Cornerstone Biblical Commentary series?  It has several strong authors, but I'm not having much luck digging up reviews anywhere.  Has anyone found the series to be profitable?

    Have you checked Amazon.com reviews?

    Cornerstone Biblical Commentary at Amazon

    There are also a few volumes reviewed at Christianbook.com.

    I use this set a lot.... It is solid, evangelical, offers important scholarly insights in it's notes and solid exegetical commentary to illuminate meaning and application. People go on how the Tyndale Commentary series by IVP is such a great series, and I will say it is pretty decent, but in my mind it usually doesn't hold a candle to this set over all (this is more important when discussing the print editions in which Cornerstone is actually cheaper). This set is good for a lay person like me, but I believe it offers pastors enough to chew on as well.
