Exodus 1–18: Evangelical Exegetical Commentary

Eugene Carpenter (1943-2012) was professor of Old Testament, Hebrew, and biblical theology at Bethel College. He wrote commentaries on Daniel and Exodus, as well as the volume on Deuteronomy in the Zondervan Illustrated Bible Backgrounds Commentary series. He translated for the Lexham English Bible and also served as a pastor and teacher in a variety of churches and ministries.

Eugene Carpenter's magnum opus is impressive in its scholarly breadth and depth. This commentary highlights the history and theology of Exodus. In Dr. Carpenter's view, these two are mixed inseparably: 'History cannot be scuttled in Exodus; it is part of the texture and matrix of theological truth.' --Dr. Wayne McCown, provost emeritus, Roberts Wesleyan College, and founding dean emeritus, Northeastern Seminary"The legacy of Gene Carpenter's life and scholarship continue well beyond his years. Few have equaled his tireless commitment to good exegesis and a biblical theology of ministry. This volume is a testament to a man who committed his life to Jesus Christ and his Word."--Terry Linhart, chair, religion and philosophy, Bethel College, Indiana
