Exodus documents the timeframe of the tribes of Israel being enslaved by Egypt up until their early establishment as an independent nation and begins the documentation of Israel's laws. The Book of Exodus is named after The Exodus, the event in which Israel "exited" Egypt, by way of the Red Sea.
- Exodus (Greek: ἔξοδος, exodos, meaning "departure") or Shemot (Hebrew: שמות, literally "names") is the second book of the Hebrew Bible, and the second of five books of the Torah/Pentateuch. Moses leads the Hebrews out of Egypt and through the wilderness to the Mountain of God: Mount Sinai. There Yahweh, through Moses, gives the Hebrews their laws and enters into a covenant with them, by which he will give them the land of Canaan in return for their faithfulness. The book ends with the construction of the Tabernacle.
- The book of Exodus deals with Israel's departure (or 'exodus') from Egypt and draws out in detail God's relationship with this nation. It can be broken up by geographical arrangement:
* Israel in Egypt (Ex. 1:1 - 12:36) Exodus 1:1
* Israel in the desert (Ex. 12:37 - 18:27) Exodus 12:37
* Israel at Mount Sinai (Ex. 19 - 40) Exodus 19:1

- The book of Exodus deals with Israel's departure (or 'exodus') from Egypt and draws out in detail God's relationship with this nation. It can be broken up by geographical arrangement:
* Israel in Egypt (Ex. 1:1 - 12:36) Exodus 1:1
* Israel in the desert (Ex. 12:37 - 18:27) Exodus 12:37
* Israel at Mount Sinai (Ex. 19 - 40) Exodus 19:1 Exodus begins with Israel's captivity in the land of Egypt (1:9-14). Jacob has just moved his decendants to this land and they quickly find themselves under the bondage of Pharaoh. They cry out to God, and he answers them by raising up a prophet, Moses. Throughout Exodus God reveals Himself more fully through Moses (cf. Ex. 3:14) to Israel. Moses tells Pharaoh to let the Israelites go, and after ten plagues they are finally released (Ex. 11:1; 12:31). After the Passover, the Israelites leave Egypt and cross the Red Sea on their journey to Mount Sinai. Here, God reveals his law through the Ten Commandments and his plans to build the tabernacle.

There Yahweh, through Moses, gives the Hebrews their laws and enters into a covenant with them, by which he will give them the land of Canaan in return for their faithfulness. The book ends with the construction of the Tabernacle. According to tradition, Exodus and the other four books of the Torah were written by Moses. However, modern biblical scholarship places its final textual form in the mid 5th century BCE, although a minority but important view would consider it a product of the Hellenistic period.
