The book of Exodus is a key to understanding the Bible. Without it, the Bible would lack three early scenes: deliverance, covenant and worship. Exodus provides the events and narrative, the themes and imagery foundational for understanding the story of Israel and of Jesus.??You can read Exodus on your own, and its main themes will be clear enough. But an expert can sharpen your understanding and appreciation of its drama. Tremper Longman provides a box-seat guide to Exodus, discussing its historical backdrop, sketching out its literary context, and developing its principal themes, from Israel's deliverance from servitude to Pharaoh to its dedication to service to God. And, for Christians, he helps us view the book from the perspective of its fulfillment in Christ.

Must first read
This is one of Longman's latest in his 'how to' books. Longman begins by placing the book of Exodus in the larger context of the Pentateuch (the first five books of the OT). Next, he moves to a literary consideration of the book, helping us understand Hebrew literary conventions and some emphases particular to Exodus. He further deals with key historical issues in Exodus, especially the crossing of the Red Sea. The book then covers Exodus section by section, bringing out interesting insights from each section. Longman finally concludes with a consideration of the value of Exodus for the Christian, showing some very interesting parallels between the Exodus events, the ministry of Christ, and other New Testament truths. Overall, this is a must first read in understanding the Book of Exodus.
