As another reviewer states, this commentary is a bad apple among the Word Biblical Commentaries, and does not hold true to the stated purpose of the series. This authors divergent views have won no support among either conservative or liberal scholars, since they are simply completely unfounded. To summarize, Watts takes a novel idea — that the book of Isaiah is actually some sort dramatic play — and instead of passing over this thought and moving on to real scholarship, he chooses to make this the basis for his entire interpretation of the book. This book is a great example of why the wise student should not blindly purchase an entire commentary set, but rather handpick the best volumes from each series.
