Overview

This commentary explains the true meaning of the book of Exodus and makes its message plain.

Exodus recounts the supreme Old Testament example of the saving acts of God, narrates the instituting of Passover and enshrines the giving of God's law. It portrays Moses as the prototype of all Israel's prophets, and Aaron, the first high priest.

Paul Williamson offers a careful and clear treatment of this foundational text, with its overarching focus on the divine-human relationship between the Lord/Yahweh and Israel: Abraham's offspring and heirs to God's promises. This commentary shows how the story and theology of Exodus continues to speak of God's faithfulness to His people today.

The Tyndale Old Testament Commentary is designed to help the reader of the Bible understand what the text says and what it means. The Introduction to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of its authorship, date, original setting and purpose. Following a structural Analysis, the Commentary takes the book section by section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on individual verses and problems of interpretation.
