I see that the New Interpreter's Bible Commentary is almost a reality. Perhaps the older version could be made available too? They are markedly different texts. I tend to find that the older version offers a lot of useful insights.

    Most assuredly. Sometimes it can be a bit dated but all in all i find it usually useful too another company was selling it for $99 and I got it then.  which was great because I had a folio version of it it was so difficult to navigate it. Search the net and you will find it. Or perhaps in a few years it will be available in Logos. I see so many items i would like just setting at the almost there mark I am starting to think none of them will ever get done... but then again, Anchor is all done but Logos is tied up in knots because of publishers cold feet.

    PS: Did a search it is currently it;s regular $199 price but that company similar to logos puts things on sale very often.

    Yes, I would appreciate having the old IBC in Logos.  I have a comment from it for which Dale Durnell was kind enough to give me the bibliographic information.  Still, having the resource would be better -- perhaps I'd find something else of interest.  I picked up that comment by browsing through Borders.

    BTW:  I don't see a post-prepub price for NIBC which leads me to think that it will continue to be that price.  For a prepub it's a bit pricey.  For a regular offering, it's not too bad.
