This book is foundational for the message of both the Old and New Testaments as it presents the paradigm of God's redemption of his people from slavery. The author affirms the Mosaic authorship and historicity of the narrative. He devotes careful attention to the Hebrew text and ancient versions, translation theory, literary structure, inner-biblical exegesis, and the history of interpretation in both Jewish and Christian traditions, with excursuses on prominent themes, including doctrinal and ethical issues.
