Description
Summary:Citations from, and discussions of, the works of Bible commentators from the earliest to later periods in the history of Jewish and Christian exegesis, while not a prevalent feature of modern biblical commentaries, are certainly not unknown. With the book of Exodus in mind, one thinks of Brevard Childs's major commentary, which, in addition to a discussion of issues raised by modern methods, discusses texts in their wider Old Testament context and their use in New Testament contexts, moving on to consider the understanding of such texts in the Jewish and Christian communities of faith of later ages as represented, for example, in the Church Fathers, the Talmud, and the writings of the Reformers.
