WHO WROTE IT?
The authorship of the book of Exodus is actually classified as anonymous, but most scholars traditionally believe that because Moses has the leading role in the story, he is the most likely author. If this traditionally held belief is accurate, Moses would have written this book sometime around the middle of the fifteenth century BC.
LITERARY STYLE
An intriguing thing to note about Exodus is its genre and literary style. On its face, we would categorize this book as undoubtedly "law." it's where the original Ten Commandments, sacrificial and ceremonial law was given to Moses by God. Interestingly enough, the bulk of the beginning chapters of this book are simply historical narrative, making them quite easy to read and understand! Students will even find a bit of poetry in "The song of Moses" in chapter 15. You're bound to enjoy the variety in the book of Exodus.
