Alexander on Isaiah makes it to my very top list of commentaries on Isaiah. The author is thorough and wonderful and I share his views on the unity of Isaiah. Alexander is truly a scholar in the best sense of the word. I have a hard copy of this book, which is a good thing, though, because the Logos version was produced very sloppily, It has numerous and serious spelling mistakes or typos in both English and Hebrew. I have come to love Logos and depend on Logos, but this work needs to be revised from scratch.
