Dr. Dixon has given much thought to Exodus as it follows up on the revelation of God provided in Genesis. God is shown to be God of the world, while creating the nation of Israel to be an exclusive witness of his glory in the world. The book of Exodus traces how God made a nation even while they served as slaves, ultimately freed them by a massive display of his own power, taught them how they were to worship him, and guided them through the early days of living apart from Egypt. In his tracing of Israel's discovery of their God, Dr. Dixon does not gloss over the difficult passages, but guided you in thinking through the author's intent. He deals with the nuances and difficulties that humans face with the Ten Commandments and makes come alive that which seems to be a monotonous detailing of the construction of the tabernacle in the wilderness, and shows the marvelous grace of God as he works with a hard-necked people in the wilderness. The book is presented in devotional segments, and will make for a rewarding study for any who desire a devotional booklet that will provide both an in depth Bible study to be read a little bit at a time, and will also be rewarding to be studied as a commentary. The preacher who longs for help in preparation and delivery of sermons from Exodus will find much to enable and enrich his preaching.
