Exodus 1-18: A Critical and Exegetical Commentary

Volume 1: Chapters 1-10

By: Graham I. Davies

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.

Exodus 1-18: A Critical and Exegetical Commentary

Volume 2: Chapters 11-18

By: Graham I. Davies

This volume continues from Graham I. Davies commentary on Exodus 1-10 and takes the reader up to the end of Exodus chapter 18, covering the release of the Israelites from Egypt and the crossing of the Red Sea. Davies brings together all the relevant aids to exegesis - linguistic, textual, archaeological, historical, literary, and theological - to help the reader understand the texts at hand. In addition to the parting of the waters and the defeat of Pharaoh's army the chapters commented upon also include the so-called 'Song of the Sea' in Exodus 15, a complex hymn that Davies studies in depth, and the provision of manna in the desert. The textual issues are varied and Davies navigates them deftly, providing close commentary and profound insights into these well-known texts. 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.

Hosea

Based on the Revised Standard Version

By: Graham I. Davies

Scholars disagree about the meaning of the teachings of the Old Testament prophet Hosea. Taking into account the variety of current views, Davies' commentary on Hosea is based on a thorough study of Hebrew texts, ancient translations, and archaelogical evidence. Davies stresses Hosea's new interpretations of Biblical traditions and draws attention to the treatment of the prophet's sayings in ancient Israel, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the New Testament.
