Complete commentary sets are found in 220.7. These sets are all reference copies, which means they must remain in the library. The first copy of a commentary set we purchase will always be here. You can use these commentaries in the library, or you can make photocopies/PDF scans of small portions. These commentaries will always be available for you!
Commentaries covering the whole Bible in one volume will also be found in 220.7.
Duplicates of commentary sets can be found organized by book of the Bible in 221-228 along with older editions of that commentary set.* These books can be checked out!
