EXPLANATORY NOTE: Commentaries for Isaiah 52 are included with Isaiah 53 because Isaiah 52:13-15 is integrally related to Isaiah 53:1-12.
JOSEPH ALEXANDER
Jim Rosscup: This is one of the best older expositions of the book from a Hebrew scholar. There are frequent word studies; he deals with syntax; he has an original translation; his commentary is more detailed than most and is often helpful verse by verse. (Commentaries for Biblical Expositors)

FRANZ DELITZSCH, SAMUEL R DRIVER
James Rosscup: Among technical works for trained students who are able to grapple with and appreciate the Hebrew, this is one of the outstanding older linguistic commentaries on Isaiah. Delitzsch put great exegetical, historical and theological learning into the work, which is highly respected. In prophecy it is Amillennial.

KEIL AND DELITZSCH
WILLIAM KELLY
James Rosscup: This is in some ways a useful English exposition of the book, but offers no Hebrew help. It is quite thorough and pre-millennial and dispensational. Kelly usually tells the reader why he takes a certain view in the debated prophetical passages. A Plymouth Brethren author, he died in 1906.
