Summary: | English-speaking readers have been well served in recent years with major commentaries on the book of Exodus. Childs’s groundbreaking volume appeared in 1974; since then we have had Durham’s Word commentary, a translation (albeit a bad one) of Houtman’s massive three-volume work, and most recently Propp’s engaging and distinctive two volumes in the Anchor Bible. The present book, by a scholar well qualified through his previous published work on Exodus, is one of the earliest in Eerdmans’s new series. As a one-volume commentary it will doubtless be seen as a competitor or replacement for Childs or Durham. In truth, it is very different from both. |
