The New Interpreter's Bible has become my favorite commentary set out there. This volume on the major prophets (and a few other OT books) is formidable in both size and content. Each of the authors of these books in this volume are more than reliable exegetes of their given material. What is unique about the format of the NIB is the parallel translations of NIV and NRSV, concise commentary, and "reflections" which the author appropriates the text. Also notable is the ecumenical approach of the set, both in treating the Apocrypha/deutoro-canonical books and enlisting an inter-denominational assortment of top rate biblical scholars.
