Are any of these chapters (or near versions) available online elsewhere? Sometimes authors recycle materials and the same stuff is available in multiple essays.
Given all the recent buzz on the NT’s use of the OT, I’d go with Hagner as well.
Hagner, because of my interest in the topic and the author. My second choice would be Fee for the same reasons.
Hagner, then Fee.
My vote: 1) Hagner, or 2) Fee.
