Produktinformationen zu „Believers Church Bible Commentary: Exodus (ePub)“

To whom does primary allegiance belong? To great human empires, or to the God whose elusive presence we can never fully grasp?Waldemar Janzen offers a fresh approach to the book of Exodus. The liberation from Egypt is a prelude to Israel's unique calling to model before the nations a new life of service under God. Exodus portrays how God, through his servant Moses, wages a dramatic battle with Egypt's mighty ruler for the release of enslaved Israel. The watching Israel wavers: "Is the Lord among us or not?" Even after Israel covenants to be God's priestly kingdom and holy nation, Israel worships a golden calf. Once more God's grace wrests Israel away, this time from slavery to doubts, fears, and self-centeredness. The people then focus faith on the imageless presence of God in their midst. God still wrestles for his people today.

Autoren-Porträt von Waldemar Janzen

Waldemar Janzen was born in the Ukraine during the Stalin era. At the age of three, he lost his father, a Mennonite teacher and minister, to a Soviet concentration camp. In 1943, during World War II, he escaped with his mother to Germany, where he was a refugee until his immigration to Canada in 1948.

He earned degrees of B.A. (University of Western Ontario), B.D. (Mennonite Biblical Seminary), M.A. (German; University of Manitoba), Th.M. (Old Testament; Harvard Divinity School), and Ph.D. (Near Eastern Languages and Literatures; Harvard University).

He served as academic dean at Canadian Mennonite Bible College for many years and he is currently Professor Emeritus of Old Testament and German, and continues to teach on a part-time basis.

Among Janzen's published works are Mourning Cry and Woe Oracle, Still in the Image: Essays in Old Testament Theology and Anthropology, and Old Testament Ethics: A Paradigmatic Approach.
