    I am curious to know what other people have prioritised in their library.

     

    Hopefully this curiousity will not kill the cat.

    NAC, College press, Expositor's

    All three are easy to read not very technical and yet not overly simplistic. Good balance in my opinion.

    I have 17 more but only use some of them on rare occasions. The three mentioned I use weekly.

    Yes I have NAC

    Which edition of Expositors do you have? because there 3 editions available in Logos.

    I know nothing about College Press, anyone else use them?

    I use the 1990 version of the Expositor's Bible Commentary but also have the old Expositor's Bible 1903 but don't use that one very often.

    I use college press.  They are written from a church of Christ perspective.  Pretty much you will find almost the same application and comments other commentaries give, but when it comes to NT theology concerning baptism, faith + works, grace, etc. it is not your typical denominational explanation.    Useful and practical.  I also use EBC, Analytical Bible Expositor because of the great alliterated chapter outlines (useful when doing expository preaching); also worth mentioning Bible Knowledge, Bible Exposition, Expositor's Bible by Robert Nicoll, Lange's and Meyer's.

    Edit: Plus Barclay's Daily Bible Readings, though I only have the original in Spanish.  I wish I had the original in English and not the new one.

    Rationale? I'm constantly changing priorities based on what I happen to be working on. So, at the moment:

    Of course, NOW I see that I haven't added in new purchases ... you've given me several hours of work updating this. Are you happy[:S]

    Incidentally, M.J., where did you get that "African Bible Commentary Series (2 volumes)"?

    I can't find it anywhere in the Logos product catalog.
