The name of the redeemer (Exod. 1:1-15:21) -- Training in the wilderness (Exod. 15:22-18:27) -- The law and the mission of God (Exod. 19-24) -- The tabernacle instructions (Exod. 25-31) -- The golden calf (Exod. 32-34) -- The tabernacle construction (Exod. 35-40).
Countering scholarly tendencies to fragment the text due to theological problems, Ross Blackburn contends that Exodus can be read as a unified whole, and that an appreciation of this missionary theme in its canonical context is of great help in dealing with difficult issues that the books poses.
