Be Delivered (Be Series)

Summary: A Very Helpful Commentary
Review: The book of Exodus is not well served with commentaries. The commentary by Brevard Childs remains the best available. Childs is a liberal, but when he is through tearing the text apart he treats it seriously, bringing out theological themes very well. Wiersbe's commenarty is much shorter and written at a popular level. Nevertheless his outlines are excellent; his interpretation is careful and conservative and his application is consistently sound. This book is useful for a pastor preparing sermons and for a general reader working through Exodus in his devotions. Note: I have not yet seen the commentary by Currid.
