Question

Explain how the story of Exodus illustrates the important ideas taught in the Jewish religion.

Answer 1

The Book of Exodus tells us about the special relationship between the Jewish god, Yahweh, and the Israelite people.

The Book of Exodus is the second book of the Torah, the most holy book in the Jewish tradition. The word “exodus” means when many people leave a place. The Book of Exodus tells how the Israelite people were freed from slavery in Egypt by their god, Yahweh, and under the leadership of Moses. Moses is considered an important prophet in three major world religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

The Book of Exodus is a sacred story to these three religions. While many followers of these faiths believe Moses wrote the Book of Exodus, modern historians believe Moses was not a real person and the Book of Exodus is a collection of stories from earlier times. Students of history can use the story to understand the history and culture of the Israelite nation and the origin of these three faiths.
