For sermon prep the first commentaries i grab of my shelf are the TNTC, TOTC, and the Life Application Bible Commentaries. These contain a very dense amount of amount information and application. Then for deep dives the PNTC, NICNT AND NICOT. i also enjoy reading commentaries outside of sermon prep for my own edification. Because i teach twice a week, these need to be easy to read, brief and deep. i enjoy the BST and the Christ-Centered Expository series. I also enjoy reading good study Bibles. The secret to getting a ton out of your SB is to look up EVERY cross reference given in the notes. i value the ESV Study Bible, the Life Application Study Bible and the FieBible.

Maybe you can share some of the distinctives of the sets.. Your description seemed to simply give the range of technical/devotional.
