A few questions about Exodus:
- In what sense can we describe the biblical book of Exodus as a work of Epic literature?
- Does it have similar inherent qualities that make it comparable to the Iliad, the Aeneid, the Divine Comedy, or Moby-Dick?
- In what sense is Exodus a book about the founding of a civilization?
- If Exodus is a work of Epic literature, then who is its Epic hero?
I would be very interested to hear your thoughts on these questions, which I think represent important questions we should be asking about Exodus, and the Bible in general.
