A huge ditto to this. Properly speaking, it is the "New Jerome Biblical Commentary," and it is a required text for many a seminary bible intro course. It is a superb, concise work. From Amazon editorial review:

 

This reference book is a compact commentary on the entire Bible that readers can use to familiarize themselves with the methods and paths followed by biblical scholars. It features current theories on dating, historical reconstruction, and archaeological information. Contemporary perspectives and topical articles of an introductory nature include Hermeneutics, Canonicity, Old Testament themes, and coverage of biblical theology. Additional commentary includes articles on Jesus, the early Church, Gnosticism, and the subapostolic church. Especially for seminarians and clergy who require a commentary on the Scriptures both during their formal study of theology and for preaching in their ministry. Also, for those interested in religion and theology on all levels and feel the need for an adequate background in the Bible.

The third version is out I believe it was stated in the thread on here that you were pursuing it. I am not sure if it’s worth looking into the old edition. Fine as it is.
