Praise for Jeremiah:"...this is the commentary to purchase, cherish and meditate upon day and night... I feel that McKane is due a standing ovation from all the other players currently operating in Jeremiah Studies for his most accomplished achievement... This is the Jeremiah commentary for ages to come.

Journal of Theological Studies

In these volumes, McKane's skills achieve their ultimate expression: the rigorously high standards of scholarship . . . his meticulous assembling of evidence from the ancient versions and the medieval commentaries; his innovative and influential theory of the “rolling canon”; his balanced presentation of different possibilities of interpretation.

The Independent

One of the most comprehensive technical commentaries there is on Jeremiah 26–52 for it shows the author's vast knowledge on philological and exegetical issues, as well as on the history of interpretation on Jeremiah up to the late twentieth century ... I highly recommend this two-volume commentary on Jeremiah to scholars and advanced students of the Hebrew Bible.

Reviews in Religion and Theology

McKane pursues the prophecy of Jeremiah in typical ICC fashion. He leaves no aspect of intricacies in the text without comment; a plethora of detail greets the reader at every turn of the page. The author addresses questions relating to technical matters with thorough diligence.
