Genesis to Deuteronomy
by David W. Cloud
Commentary on Genesis to Deuteronomy in two volumes.
The first five books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy) are called the Pentateuch, which is from the Greek pentáteuchos meaning “five scrolls.” The Jews call them the Torah, meaning law or teaching.
The Pentateuch is called “the law of Moses” or “Moses’ law” 23 times in 12 books of Scripture. Christ divided the Old Testament into “the law of Moses,” “the prophets,” and “the psalms” (Lu. 24:44).
The Pentateuch is the foundation of the Bible. It describes the creation of the world, the fall of man, and the beginning of God’s plan of redemption through Christ.
The Pentateuch relates the beginning of Israel’s history: the call of Abraham, the birth of Isaac, the 12 sons of Jacob, Joseph’s slavery and exaltation, Israel’s journey to Egypt, the Exodus, the crossing of the Red Sea, the year at Sinai, the wilderness wandering, the conquering of the land east of Jordan (Nu. 21:21-35), and the restatement of the law.

The Pentateuch contains the law of Moses, which is God’s schoolmaster to lead men to Christ (Gal. 3:24). It does this by revealing man’s sin and God’s holy judgment against sin and by pointing to Christ as the only Saviour (Ro. 3:19-25).
The Pentateuch contains the foundation of Messianic types and prophecies. To understand the Old Testament properly, we must see Christ. “And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself” (Lu. 24:27).
The Pentateuch contains the foundation of Messianic genealogy. It traces Christ’s genealogy from Adam to Judah as follows: Adam to Noah (Ge. 5:3-32); Shem to Abraham (Ge. 11:10-26); Isaac to Jacob (whose name was changed to Israel) (Ge. 25:19-26); to Judah (one of Jacob’s 12 sons) (Ge. 49:8-10).

> About the Commentary Series
Commentary Series
This series is designed in a unique format to be used as commentaries, as teaching courses, and for expository preaching. The commentaries are thorough, serious, broad, insightful, and practical, with an emphasis on application to the Christian life and ministry. Context is honored; words are defined; metaphors are explained; difficulties are tackled. The commentaries are packed with historical backgrounds and archaeological studies based on the author’s personal research, which is reflected in books such as Bible Times and Ancient Kingdoms and Jews in Fighter Jets. The interpretation is from a literal, dispensational perspective, and the King James Bible is explained but not criticized. There is no hint of modernism nor influence from compromised evangelicalism. The user will find no reference to or dependence upon men such as Origen, Jerome, Augustine, C.S. Lewis, Eberhard Nestle, or Bruce Metzger.
