It contains commentary on a large part of the Book of Exodus (chapters 12 to 23) and represents the two main modes of interpretation: the halakhah (legal doctrine), and the aggadah (moral and religious teachings). The work also contains allusions to historical events and ancient legends not found elsewhere. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA new introduction by noted scholar David Stern highlights the work, now published in a convenient two-volume set.
