A short, weighty exposition of Exodus 33-34, where God preaches his own name. Tom Pennington on the character of God revealed at the rock. Read more.
In Exodus 33 and 34 God proclaims his own name to Moses, and the result is the fullest self-description in the Old Testament. Tom Pennington expounds those two chapters at length and keeps the focus where the text puts it, on who God is and how he responds to sinners.
Thomas R. Schreiner commends it as a book that lifts the reader's eyes to the Lord, to his great and glorious name and character, and the commendations from Old Testament scholars make the same point about its handling of the passage. Short enough to read in a sitting and substantial enough to return to.
