Keil & Delitzsch for the Old Testament: good on the original languages.
Lange: I've only had a few of the OT, but they were thorough.
Alford's Commentary: Tremendous on the New Testament Greek.
Wycliffe Bible Commentary.
Barnes' Notes
The New International Biblical Commentary by David J. Williams.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia.
Not so much for Bible Study:
Matthew Henry: more devotional and boring if you're looking for exposition.
Debatable:
William Barclay's Daily Study Bible: Only the New Testament. In some places excellent with illustrations and Bible exposition. But poor as far as Divine Inspiration and Infallibility of Scripture. The publishers of Daily Study Bible Series put out commentaries on the Old Testament by other authors. Out of curiosity I checked out their Book of Daniel at the bookstore, to see how it stood on authorship. It stated that the Book of Daniel was written around 170 BC, and was not a prophetic book written at the time it claimed to be written. So I never bought any of them.
