Riassunto:

Uses the New American Bible, Revised Edition!

The epic story of liberation and covenant-making flowers in the pages of the book of Exodus, making this study the perfect choice for the holy season of Lent. Exodus provides a deeper understanding of Passover and the journey to the Promised Land, with commentary and questions that reveal the profound meaning of the patterns of slavery, freedom, and promise etched in its pages.

Dal risvolto di copertina interno: The journey of Exodus is the quest for freedom and life. It is the foundation of the Jewish faith and therefore at the heart of the Christian-Judaic heritage. Genuine freedom and fullness of life was the divinely inspired purpose of both Moses and Jesus; both called God's people to journey in faith. This commentary explores what to the Judaic tradition is the perennial event of Exodus, not just a historical but a continuing journey toward God and toward understanding themselves as God's people. It reveals a powerful story of passage from bondage to freedom, from death to life, and as such is the story of all God's people. Written with adult study groups and college-level classes in mind, this commentary on the NAB translation provides sound scholarship in a clear, readable style.
