In A Commentary on the Book of Exodus, Cassuto’s comments have a vivid quality seldom found in the exegetical writings of other biblical expositors, who all too often prefer a simplistic and lifeless approach to their subject. Cassuto succeeds in injecting a sense of dramatic excitement into his interpretations. Without neglecting the scientific data provided by archeological and philological research, he makes us conscious of the literary attributes of the Bible.
A Commentary on the Book of Exodus does not separate the annotations from the biblical text, but forms a continuous, unified commentary in which the scriptural citations are interlinked with the exposition. The elements are so closely and artistically interwoven as to form a new literary entity—not a text with notes, but a homogeneous expository work, which must rank among the finest modern contributions to the treasury of biblical learning.
In the Logos edition of A Commentary on the Book of Exodus, you get easy access to Scripture texts and to a wealth of other resources in your digital library.
