Concordia Commentary Collection
Does anyone know if this ever goes on sale? Seems like this gets bypassed even when the big headliners like Word Biblical Commentary and NICOT/NICNT get discounted. I suppose this is a result of Concordia holding back.

I have never seen this series on a sale. The sake seems to be prepub pricing.

Unfortunately, I believe Concordia increased the price since the original post.

On the publisher’s website there is a 30% discount just for registration.

This is a commentary series I would really like to buy, but when someone watching Logos for deals over the past few months could pick up the Anchor Yale, Word Biblical, and also New International Commentary series (all big, serious, expensive commentaries themselves) and still spend hundreds of dollars less than getting the Concordia, it keeps the Concordia Commentary in the wish list instead of the library.

I want to ask those forum members who own this collection, is it really worth it? Most top-tier exegetical commentaries are significantly cheaper. What makes this one so special?

I’ve never seen them on sale or as a part of a Base Package. There are some volumes that I’d like to buy, but not at regular price. James looks like a good volume to have.

I own a few volumes. As with all series, there is some variation in quality between individual volumes. The selling point is that it approaches Scripture from a Confessional Lutheran perspective. This means references to other relevant passages, references to early church fathers, and references to the Lutheran Confessions contained in the Book of Concord—among other things. For some books, such as Romans, the Lutheran approach and theology will differ greatly from a Reformed approach, which immediately makes many mainstream volumes useless to a Lutheran (except to criticize).
