An academic/scholarly commentary that has been on reserve for Gospel of Matthew classes in the past is Davies and Allison, A critical and exegetical commentary on the Gospel according to Saint Matthew in 3 volumes. The International Critical Commentary series as a whole is targeted toward the Bible scholar/teacher. This commentary and the entire ICC series is also available to LS students as eBooks. (Find ICC online under our list of Databases.)

For an excellent overview of 'best commentaries' on all books of the Bible (whether academic or pastoral, etc) see John Evans' Guide to Biblical Commentaries and Reference Works (BS491.2.B1 E92 2016)
