What surprises me is the low price. Then, I wondered if it some kind of an abridged version. Any comments? I did email estudysource to ask, BTW.

Heres what I've found out on this Set....Its the same one theWord has for a "Fee". They have a fee for each volume of the OT & NT.... They also have a fee for the entire OT (22 vols....$660+).....And they also have the entire NT (18 vols....$500+). I'm thinking the 18 vols that eStudysource is offering is the same as theWord is offering (Full NT Version ).....but at 1/5 of the Price. When you get the answer to your eMail.....please let us know what they said !!

I just noticed that estudysource is offering a new commentary and it sounds too good to be true:

On that note, I went to the site and had a look at the price, and I drooled out both sides of the mouth (which is good cos that means I'm on the level ). With that said, I'm gonna buy it next month.
OK, now for the rest. Now that we have the NICNT in stock, I no longer think it is now a matter of if, but when we will have the TDNT and the TWOT for e-Sword. When the TDNT is going to be made available for e-Sword, I'm hoping that its going to be the unabridged version using the same numbering system as seen in Thayer's Greek NT Dictionary, and in Brown-Driver-Briggs’ Hebrew Definitions Dictionary.

Update:
A brother was kind of enough to send me something I could use to compare what estudysource offers in the NICNT. In comparing it with another electronic edition I have of NICNT, I noticed a few things. It is essentially the same, including footnotes. You don't have to select a footnote since they just include all the words in parentheses in the body of the text. That is nice. There is a minor sequential difference in where they but the Bibliography and Abbreviations, still they are there. One problem that is significant for me is that Hebrew text does not render well. I get question marks instead of Hebrew letters. So, I suppose one could try any of the several different Hebrew fonts within e-sword to see if another one works. I normally use the default font which works well in K & D for instance. (I am thinking it is a given that whatever font I must change to in order to use NICNT must also work with other commentary modules and their Hebrew characters.)

I can't get the Hebrew to render in this commentary either, no matter what font e-Sword uses (default, or otherwise).
Also of interest is the tooltipping. When a verse is dissected into a, b, or c, the verse tooltip doesn't show, i.e. Php_2:7c or Rom_8:4b. The letter should be moved away from the verse for the tooltip to activate in e-Sword.
Looks like a good set, though, especially at this price.

From estudysource: "These are the texts for the 18 vols. as supplied by the publisher. They are not abridged."
As Dartmaster and Josh both said, this is a good set at a good price. An offer I cannot afford to pass up!

OK, the drooling out of both sides of my mouth has now increased 10 fold, as where it is now creating a bit of a flood. I guess that means I really have to do something about getting this commentary.
This increased drooling can become a health and safety hazard, and so hanging around for a month to get this commentary is going to have to be at most cut in half.
OK, now for some seriousness.
Thanks a heap for your information, and for your input to where this commentary is at.
Blessings,
