The Exodus by Richard Elliott Friedman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is an extensive and rigorous study of the biblical exodus. Friedman thoroughly examines the historical reality of the event while exploring its profound aftermath. Beyond tracing how it happened, the book illuminates the far-reaching consequences of the exodus. Moreover, it demonstrates how this pivotal event reshaped history, redefined religion, laid the foundations for modern civilization, and fundamentally altered the way we perceive the world.
