    John Gill- he tends to be a bit of a hyper-calvinist at times though.

    Boice is good and there is always Calvin's commentaries.

    I don't have them but I would have thought someone would mention MacArthur's NT commentaries.

    There is surely a more Calvinistic distinction with Gill, as opposed to Barnes & JFB, agree?

    MAC is a Calvinist in sotierology, but he is mildly dispensational. I prefer his commentaries, since I am also mildly dispy, but that removes him to the edge of what one might call "Reformed."

    Barnes is a 4-pointer, JFB are solidly Calvinistic, and so is the Puritan, Poole. Gill is pretty hyper, but is one of the most detailed commentaries one will find.
