Graham I. Davies provides his long-awaited commentary on the first
ten chapters of the second book of the Torah in this in-depth
engagement with Exodus chapters 1-10. Davies brings together all
the relevant aids to exegesis - linguistic, textual, philological,
archaeological, historical, literary, and theological - to help the
reader understand the text at hand. The first ten chapters of
Exodus cover the affliction in Egypt and the finding of Moses as
well as the plagues of Egypt and Moses' interactions with Pharaoh.
Davies plumbs the depths of these well-known texts, bringing out
many profound insights into their structure and meaning, and into
the history of scholarship. Two results of Davies's research are to
place the old hypothesis of an Elohistic source on a much stronger
footing and to reaffirm that both it and the J source extended
through both Genesis and Exodus.
