The commentary interprets the Hebrew text first from a synchronous perspective, both literarily and theologically. In Ex 15-18, Israel's relationship with God is described as a conflict and a test. At Sinai, YHWH comes so close to his people in the Torah and in the sanctuary that he overcomes himself in his mercy.Preceding stages of the text are reconstructed diachronically: The oldest narrative recounts the constitution of Israel as a republic with the Decalogue and the Covenant Code as its constitution. The Deuteronomists adapt this narrative to their laws, while the priestly composition envisions a sanctuary founded by the people. After all, Israel appears as a complex community resting on the pillars of law and sanctuary. Syntheses reflect the relationship between the two interpretations.

Dr. Helmut Utzschneider is professor emeritus of Old Testament at the Augustana Hochschule Neuendettelsau.Dr. Wolfgang Oswald is professor (retired) of Old Testament at the University of Tübingen.
