In scrolling through the ICC COMMENTARIES on ISAIAH, I noticed that chapters 28-39 are missing.
Is there a reason for that?
Can someone please provide an explanation?
These are the only chapters missing from the volumes on ISAIAH.
that volume has not been published yet.
Thank you Bobby Terhune for providing the explanation for me.
Any idea as to when it will be published?
Is the info I got from best commentaries since there is no date given there or sign of them on the publishers website I am guess it is still over 6 months off... but it could just as easily be 6 years...

Thanks Dan for the information.
It is also showing on the publisher's website, Bloomsbury Publishing, that ISAIAH 1-27 has been published since March 1st. 2001 by George Buchanan Gray.
This long lived series has had many overlapping volumes... usually older ones, but not always. Even Anchor has 2 different volumes covering Isaiah 40-66. As well as now two covering Revelation. Or are you referring to the fact that George Buchanan Gray was originally published in 1912? I would half suspect it was reprinted in 2001... Thomas Nelson use to be very famous for rereleasing books with new covers and sometimes names (at least I noticed it often myself and felt it was a bit off putting).
I guess I am referring to the one published in 1912. I prefer the older commentaries to the new ones. But it does get a bit confusing when you see 2 different versions of the same commentaries.
So the ICC Commentaries on ISAIAH, or in general, are being republished with new commentary then Dan?
Is that how I am to understand it?
The volumes are not being replaced due to the older date but it is not a complete series and some volumes have been scheduled to be replaced. The series is suppose to present the best of Biblical scholarship. They also do not conform to a particular theological form so I can understand them wanting to offer a different viewpoint to complement what they have. I do not believe anything beyond known errors were replaced in 2001 edition, and perhaps updating the antiquated numbering system.
I am going through the ICC COMMENTARY on ESTHER now by LEWIS BAYLES PAYTON, which was published in 1908, then again in 1951, and now re-published in 2001, and am loving it.
It is quite riveting and interesting. It will keep your attention, that's for sure, and am learning so much about the Citadel of Susa, and how the palace was draped in different hanging curtains, the mosaic pavement, the different languages that were spoken then, etc.
As I already stated, am so loving it, and learning so much. I am trying to collect all of the volumes, so whenever they put them on sale in the monthly sales, I will buy them.
They are extraordinary commentaries.
The guy doing the 28-39 volume is behind schedule because he's only doing a little here and a little there.
Thank you Robert M. Warren for the information.
