This volume particularly focuses on the Israelites' journey from Egypt to the death of Moses, detailing pivotal events and characters, especially emphasizing the life and significance of Moses as a leader, prophet, and lawgiver for the Jewish people. The opening of this volume sets the stage for the narrative of the Exodus, starting with Moses' efforts to retrieve Joseph's bones from Egypt to honor a promise made long ago. It delves into key themes, including the divine guidance the Israelites receive during their journey, the symbolic significance of laws given to them, and the various challenges they face, including doubts and grievances against Moses. Ginzberg intertwines miraculous elements, such as the parting of the Red Sea and the provision of manna, alongside moral and theological lessons important to Jewish tradition. This serves both as a retelling of familiar biblical stories and a reflective commentary on the faith and collective identity of the Jewish people.
