Subtitle: An Exposition of Exodus 21-23

About the Title: The present book, I think, is very important.... The Book of the Covenant, Exodus 21-23, is one of the important parts of the Bible. The Pentateuch is the heart of the Old Testament, and the Ten Commandments are the heart of the Pentateuch. Within the Pentateuch, the Book of the Covenant is the most concise, the most fundamental exposition of the Decalogue. Yet most Christians today are entirely ignorant of this part of the Bible. The laws of this passage (like others in the Pentateuch) are rather mysterious to modern readers. Mr. Jordan clears up many of these mysteries for us...

...This book is a tremendous contribution. There are fresh insights on nearly every page. It raises the discussion of biblical law to a new level of precision and cogency, because it deals with the law in such detail. It is the most practical piece of biblical theology I've seen in a long time.
