Overview
The College Press Bible Study Textbook Series (The Old Green Commentaries) includes 59 books and over 30,000 pages of valuable insight. This library includes outlines, introductions, essays, paraphrases, surveys, maps, illustrations and questions to engage the reader.
Written between the 1960’s and 1980’s, this classic study series is respected throughout Christianity. For many Christians, a few volumes from this set was their first Bible commentary.
This set is a textbook rather than a traditional commentary. The difference is the amount of time required to read an entry, the presentation of material, and the amount of material. This set is not intended to be a quick reference.

The e-Sword Modules were Prepared by BibleSupport.com
The spelling error noticed by Steve Waller in 2015 has not been corrected. This is in Ezekiel 38, where the name "Gog" in the original was changed to "God", and where the name "Gog" was changed in Ezekiel 39 to "Cog" and "God". Perhaps the person who checked the conversion into e-Sword did not have the word "Gog" added to his spelling dictionary. But this is quickly seen when you compare the commentary with the more standard texts of the Bible, such as KJ2000, KJVA, KJV, AFV, which can be quickly done using e-Sword version 15.2 View Layouts where search on the open chapter can be quickly searched..
Thank you Josh for putting this together. 30,000+ pages across 59 books isn't small work, and the extra reference library (Crawford, DeWelt, Willis, Wartick) is a nice bonus. Installed fine on my side. These are more like textbooks than quick-reference commentaries, so I'll mostly use them for deeper study and lesson prep. God bless your effort.
