This final volume in Cornelis Houtman’s Historical Commentary on the Old Testament series completes his in-depth work on the book of Exodus. Focusing on the legal texts—including the Ten Commandments and the Book of the Covenant—as well as much of the Sinai narrative, this volume offers detailed analysis and serves as a valuable guide to both the text and the wider scholarly conversation.

One highlight is the treatment of the tabernacle chapters. Houtman places the instructions and the corresponding construction accounts side by side, allowing readers to easily compare and follow the narrative structure.

Thorough and thoughtful, this commentary is a rich resource for anyone studying Exodus, especially those interested in the legal and liturgical sections of the book.
