Description:
Writer(s): MosesPlace Written: Wilderness of Sinai
Writing Completed: 1512 B.C.E.
Time Covered: 1657 - 1512 B.C.E
The second scroll of the Pentateuch, also referred to as the Second Book of Moses. It came to be known in Hebrew as Shemohth', "Names," from its opening phrase, We'el'leh shemohth', "Now these are the names." "Exodus" is the Latinized form of the Greek; this means "Going Forth; Departure," that is, of the Israelites out of Egypt.
This book is an obvious continuation of Genesis, beginning with the expression "Now" (literally, "And") and then relisting the names of the sons of Jacob that are taken from the more complete record at Genesis 46:8-27. Exodus was written in 1512 B.C.E., a year after the Israelites departed from Egypt and camped in the wilderness of Sinai. The book covers a period of 145 years, from Joseph's death in 1657 B.C.E. to the construction of the tabernacle in 1512 B.C.E.
