Questions on product description for Young's Commentary on Isaiah

The product description for Young's commentary on Isaiah says "The Book of Isaiah (3 vols.) was the inaugural commentary for the New International Commentary Series on the Old Testament!"

1) The link to the New International Commentary Series on the Old Testament doesn't work.

2) These volumes are not a part of the NICOT, as I see it.

Is there some other New International Commentary series?

Is this volume no longer a part of that series (the Isaiah volumes in the NICOT are dated after these were published)?

(The volume is on sale, and I'm considering buying it.)

Rich,

The Young set was part of the ORIGINAL NICOT set. When NICOT started revising their set, Isaiah was one of the commentaries they replaced (with the Oswalt commentary you now find in the set). It is no longer associated with the NICOT, but is now a stand-alone commentary.

Now to opinion: While the new commentary on Isaiah is good, I think Young's commentary is head and shoulders better, primarily because I am a conservative and so is Young, and also because his commentary is more extensive than many others. This set kind of set the standard for the NICOT series, and some say it is one reason why the series was so good for so long. This 3-volume set was one of my first purchases after I initially got L3. We are fortunate Logos made it available early on. I highly recommend it.
