The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (referred to below as "Cambridge Commentary") was the first commentary set published by Cambridge University Press.
Cambridge Commentary versus Cambridge Greek Commentary
This Cambridge Commentary 1) Covers the Old and New Testaments and 2) has a more accessible writing style than it's Greek counterpart. Specifically, this Cambridge Commentary removes most of the Greek words and technical discussion found in the Cambridge Greek Commentary. Many New Testament portions of this Cambridge Commentary have been reworded or paraphrased for a less technical, exegetical audience.
About the Cambridge Commentary
More than 30 bible scholars, preachers, and theologians wrote the Cambridge Commentary—including names you have likely seen before: H. C. G. Moule, F. W. Farrar, Alfred Plummer, Herbert Edward Ryle, S. R. Driver, J. Skinner, and A. T. Chapman (see below for complete list). This set provides a comprehensive, holistic examination of the Bible, including history, original language analysis, outlines, literary analysis and verse by verse comments. The General Editor of the set was J. J. S. Perowne, Dean of Peterborough.
theWord Edition
theWord edition spans 90 megabytes (uncompressed) and contains over 29,000 verse comments, not including Book and Chapter comments.
The download includes the main commentary and An Introduction to the Pentateuch by A. T. Chapman (in General Book format).
Reviews
Many of the individual volumes were reviewed by press when they were released.

Thank you so much for all your work on this incredible product. I put it right to use!
Thank you for this latest iteration of your faithful labor of love...
Excellent resource. I noticed that the tree structure is missing some nodes (Songs, 2Pet, and 3John). I just added them using Ctrl+n. Is that the right way to do it? Thanks :-)
The nodes appear when there are comments. If there are no comments, then the nodes don't exist. I sometimes create them anyway just for looks in the Tree view. I didn't this time though. Your adding them is fine.
Don't know whether this is the right place to post this but I notice that the verse links do not work (pop up doesn't show) if the links are in parenthesis. If there are multiple verses in parenthesis then generally the first and last links in the list/chain don't work. Also some references for 1Co do not work - see entry for John 1:42. That said the usefulness of the module FAR outweighs the irritation of non functioning links :-)
Yes, I agree, those links need fixing.

There is a workaround to this that you can do manually, as the author might not ever fix this. I would do it myself, but I don't have the knowledge to manage an SQL table to this extent.
From theWord, open up Module Properties. Under the Settings/Actions tab, check the option to make it a "User Module", which can be edited. Then hit ok. Now you can edit the notes to your liking. Simply select a broken verse, and RMB (right-mouse-click button) and select edit hyperlink. Now you can link it to the appropriate book/chapter/verse from this menu.
This is, indeed, tedious, but at least you can fix it yourself on a 1-by-1 basis. I do wish the author would fix this, however.
Best Regards
Update: Ctrl + D is a faster means to get automatic links added after a selection. =)
Further, on review this work, the contents seem a bit antiquated. It's also difficult to find reviews on this particular collection of works. With that said, it's helpful in a few specific instances, but I really doubt it's among the best of commentary sources.
If you’re looking for a specific volume or part of the series, such as volume 1.2, you can find these works available for free online. For instance, the Internet Archive has a collection of these volumes that you can borrow or view digitally. Just search for the volume you’re interested in on their website to access it.
