Some of my favorite commentaries and study guides are:
1. The Bible exposition commentary By W. W. Wiersbe, (this covers the New Testament) Or the Warren Wiersbe’s Old Testament “Be” Series Or the "Be Commentary Series" by Wiersbe, in which you can buy each book of the bible separately.
2. The MacArthur study Bible
3. The Bible knowledge commentary : An exposition of the scriptures
I just LOVE Wiersbe's "Be" series of commentaries as I said before. He brings every single book alive and makes it very personal. It really helps you grow a lot! As it's more expensive (at first) to buy the whole New or Old testament series, I also wanted to list the individual titles of the entire Be series as it can be a lot easier to buy them one at a time that way.
Here's the Old Testament ones:
Be Basic: Genesis 1-11
Be Obedient: Genesis 12-25
Be Authentic: Genesis 25-50
Be Delivered: Exodus
Be Holy: Leviticus
Be Counted: Numbers
Be Equipped: Deuteronomy
Be Strong: Joshua
Be Available: Judges
Be Committed: Ruth & Esther
Be Successful: 1 Samuel
Be Restored: 2 Samuel & 1 Chronicles
Be Responsible: 1 Kings
Be Distinct: 2 Kings & 2 Chronicles
Be Determined: Nehemiah
Be Patient: Job
Be Worshipful: Psalms Vol. 1
Be Exultant: Psalms Vol. 2
Be Skillful: Proverbs
Be Satisfied: Ecclesiastes
Be Comforted: Isaiah
Be Decisive: Jeremiah
Be Reverent: Ezekiel
Be Resolute: Daniel
Be Concerned: Amos, Obadiah, Micah, Zephaniah
Be Heroic: Haggai, Zechariah, Ezra
Be Amazed: Hosea, Joel, Jonah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Malachi
Here's the New Testament ones:
Be Loyal: Matthew
Be Diligent: Mark
Be Compassionate: Luke 1-13
Be Courageous: Luke 14-24
Be Alive: John 1-12
Be Transformed: John 13-21
Be Dynamic: Acts 1-12
Be Daring: Acts 13-28
Be Right: Romans
Be Wise: 1 Corinthians
Be Encouraged: 2 Corinthians
Be Free: Galatians
Be Rich: Ephesians
Be Joyful: Philippians
Be Complete: Colossians
Be Ready: 1 & 2 Thessalonians
Be Faithful: 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon
Be Confident: Hebrews
Be Mature: James
Be Hopeful: 1 Peter
Be Alert: 2 Peter, 2 & 3 John, Jude
Be Real: 1 John
Be Victorious: Revelation
Another very good one that I recommend for a fantastic study of the gospels is:
The Life of Christ: A Study Guide to the Gospel Record by M. S. Mills
It can be hard to find but if you keep watch on amazon they have had it once in awhile for a decent price. Honestly though, it's priceless, it's so good! Having studied it, I'd recommend any study you can find by him.
