Exodus (Tyndale Old Testament Commentary Series)
R Alan ColePaperback 2008-04-18
Exodus, Cole says, is "the centre of the Old Testament." It 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, the prototype of all Israel's prophets, and Aaron, the first high priest.
The book of Exodus is especially important to Christians because Christ fulfilled its great themes: He accomplished God's greatest act of deliverance. He became the passover lamb. He sealed a new covenant with his blood. "No book therefore will more repay careful study, if we wish to understand the central message of the New Testament, than this book."
The Tyndale Commentary Series has long been a trusted resource for Bible study. Written by some of the world's most distinguished evangelical scholars, each book offers clear, reliable, and relevant expositions.
This classic IVP resource is now being completely retypeset and presented in a fresh, new large paperback format for the twenty-first century. All the volumes are being re-issued, beginning in February 2008 with the Pentateuch and the Gospels, and finishing in spring 2009.
The introduction to each volume is a concise yet thorough description of the authorship, date, and historical background of the book under consideration. The commentary itself examines the text section by section, drawing out its main themes. It also comments on individual verses and deals with problems of interpretation.
The aim throughout is to get at the true meaning of the Bible and to make its message plain to readers today.
