Bound for Freedom: The Book of Exodus in Jewish and Christian Traditions

Following the example of the rabbis, the author explores the webs of conceptual linkages within the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament. He engages texts from contemporary Egyptian and Canaanite cultures that inform our understanding of the Exodus narrative. Larsson demonstrates that those dynamic words repeatedly come alive for succeeding generations of interpreters, culminating in his persistent and emphatic appeals to the hearts and intentions of his own readers.
