The stories and instruction in the Old Testament book of Exodus
seem more at home in a museum than in today's world. Yet, for the
apostle Paul, the Old Testament is 'written for us': hence, reading
Exodus as direct address is the appropriate Christian stance. This
volume, based on the 2007 Moore College School of Theology,
acknowledges that reading Exodus for all its worth, as a witness to
the gospel and as wisdom for Christian living, is an enormous
challenge. The book's appeal for today is unmistakable, in terms of
its epic scope and moral complexity. The opening chapter surveys
the 'uses, re-uses and misuses' of Exodus in contemporary culture,
and exhorts us to feel the book's raw power, by facing squarely its
moral challenges and being shaped by its sometimes bewildering
theology. In response, subsequent chapters explore major units of
the text and the main theological and ethical issues that they
raise. Topics covered are the exodus event itself; its significance
in contemporary theologies of liberation; Moses at Sinai; the Law
in Exodus; the tabernacle; and how we should preach Exodus.
