Alford's Greek NT for English Readers vs. Alford's Greek NT Commentary

Reid A Ferguson

Question for someone out there who "knowns" - I already Alford's Greek NT commentary - is there significantly more material in the NT for English Readers to make it worth having both? Gotta watch my budget. If there is not enough to justify both, I'll put that money into some other volumes. 

Thanks!

You might take a look at http://www.logos.com/products/prepub/details/5998 . This page includes excerpts from the Introduction to the print edition. One item reads "7. The notes are mainly an adaptation and abridgment of those in my Edition of the Greek Testament. Additions are sometimes made to those notes, where further explanations, of a nature suitable to the English reader, seemed to be required.

I believe that if you have his Greek NT commentary, you would already have everything that is important in the English Readers edition.
